Tofu Golem on Nostr: Christian Nationalists argue that atheism is false because it leads to moral ...
Christian Nationalists argue that atheism is false because it leads to moral relativism, which is bad because under moral relativism, things are not good or bad based on what is done, but based on who does them.
They also argue that Christianity is true because they believe in moral absolutism, in which things are good or bad based on what is done, not based on who does them.
For the record, authority-based morality leads to the most extreme form of moral relativism (Divine Command Theory).
