Looking at the macro, it becomes obvious, as once individuals or societies become the source of right and wrong, right and wrong, good and evil, are merely adjectives describing one’s preferences. This is known as moral relativism, and it is the dominant attitude toward morality in modern secular society. Moral relativism means that murder, for example, is not objectively wrong; you may feel it’s wrong, but it is no more objectively wrong than your feeling that some music is awful renders that music objectively awful. It’s all a matter of personal feeling. That is why in secular society people are far more prone to regard moral judgments as merely feelings. Children are increasingly raised to ask the question, “How do you feel about it?” rather than, “Is it right or wrong?”No, I do believe that objective reality is fair, real, orderly and knowable. But I can't prove it and have no evidence for it.
Only if God, the transcendent source of morality, says murder is wrong, is it wrong, and not merely one man’s or one society’s opinion.
