OUTLINE:
INTRODUCTION:
The Cosmological Argument:
The Teleological Argument
THE MORAL ARGUMENT:
The argument goes like this:
1. Every law has a law giver.
2. There is a Moral Law.
3. Therefore, there is a Moral Law Giver.
An Atheist Perspective on Morality
DISTINCTIONS:
Values and duties:
Objective vs Subjective moral values and duties.
BREAKDOWN OF ARGUMENT
Premise 1:
Every law has a law giver.
Premise 2:
There is a moral law.
Conclusion:
So, since we have established that the first and second premise holds true then the conclusion follows necessarily. Every law does have a law giver. There is a moral law. Therefore, there is a moral law giver.
FORCAST:
In the next episode we will draw up a profile or the kind of Cause that was responsible for the characteristics that we observe in our known universe. We will refer to the cosmological, teleological and moral arguments to compile a definition of a cause or creator that we will use as a reference point as we consider different world views going forward.
