![]() ![]() Just as those who deny germs exist can still get sick because germs really do exist, those who deny God exists can still do good things because God really does exist, and so a real standard of good does exist to make “doing good” possible. ![]() Such actions are objectively good because God actually does exist, even if the atheist doesn’t believe He exists. The argument is claiming that the only reason such kind actions can be thought of as truly being morally good in any real or objective sense is that the atheist is wrong about God. The argument is not claiming that people who don’t believe in God cannot do kind things or that atheists are generally morally worse people than religious people are. Since objective moral values and duties do exist, God must also exist. The moral argument for the existence of God is the argument that God is necessary for objective moral values or duties to exist. ![]()
