Is there an objective standard for morality? Can God be that standard? If God had a different nature would morality be different? Scott and Jamie tackle these issues and more as they investigate together the objective standard for morality.
In "Spin the Wheel", Scott and Jamie surprise each other with burning questions on "Mercy and Justice" and "Valid Methods of Reasoning".
The dialectic duo also get the ball rolling on the "God or Not Book Club", where they will be reading "Sense and Goodness Without God: A Defense of Metaphysical Naturalism" by Richard Carrier. Grab a copy and follow along if you would like! The first assignment is Sections I & II (up to page 62). You may contribute to the discussion by submitting your comments by 1/14/20.
As further study Scott recommends the book “Just Babies: The Origins of Good and Evil” by Paul Bloom, and Jamie recommends the book “Legislating Morality” by Frank Turek.
Happy New Year 2020!
