## Resource

I was listening to a debate recently between an atheist and a theist. The theist was arguing that, if there is no God, then there is no objective good. It is impossible to say what is good and what is evil. The atheist replied by asking whether God was a person? And the answer was that, yes, God is a person. But then, said the atheist, if God is a person, then He is a subject. And so God definition of good and evil is merely subjective. This answer by the atheist completely fails to understand what it means for there to be a God Who creates us. It is true that God is a subject, but as Creator of our world, He makes an objective order for His creation. By His act of creation, God establishes for us what we are and what we are made for. This determines what is good and evil for us. For example, God created us to have physical bodies that need air, food, drink, and sleep.

God created humans as male and female and gave them the capacity to bring forth children through their union and only in that way. This is what makes marriage to be a good thing.

The fact that God created us in a certain way has determined for us what is good and what is evil for us. We call this reality “natural law”. It is the law that goes with having the nature that God has given us. This law is objective, in the sense that it is the same for every human being. It does not change based on where you are from, how you feel, how you iden…
