Who is the best person ever? Who is worst?
If one is better than the other, then there is the best and worst of all beings.
The best we will call God, the worst - the devil.
An Atheist would comment: "Well, according to this logic, Keanu Reeves will be God, and the devil will be some Hitler."
The point is, God and the devil will be there anyway. Thus, Atheists will become an extinct kind. After that, people can study God by the methods of science and logic.
An Atheist would comment: "If there was an objective measure of morality, then your statement would be true. But the fact is that there is no such measure in principle. Therefore, this is not proof, but only a stream of mental expressions. It's like looking for the happiest or the most unhappy person in the world."
And yet it is indisputable that Mother Teresa is objectively better than Adolf Hitler. Anyone is better than Hitler. And if so, then someone is better, someone is worse. If you study in detail any case (and a person's past and future), then even you can perfectly distinguish between the people. Otherwise, why the Nazi War Criminals were hanged after world war two? Therefore, believe me, there is the best person. Even if you are not able to figure out which of two people is better, the Lord in Heaven knows which of the two is closer to Him.
Your mother is the best person ever. But subjectively.
Mother Teresa is better than your mom, objectively. Why? Mother Teresa is a saint. Mother Teresa is better than us, than you or me. Lady Diana is better than me. At least, she is more beautiful inside and outside.
"Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name. But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person." John 2:23-25.
