Shownotes Transcript

Greg answers questions about how to determine which religion is true, why God wouldn’t just write his own book, how we know the Christian God is the real God, and whether there’s an objective moral system or we’re simply acting to avoid pain.   Topics:

- How would you determine which religion is true and which is not? What’s more likely: that God doesn’t exist and men invented religion to control people, or that God depended on men to write a book with ridiculous laws? (02:00)

- How should I answer my friend who is asking, “How do I know the Christian God is the real God who created everything?” (25:00)

- There is no such thing as an objective moral system. We’re simply acting to avoid pain, and God isn’t necessary for that. Also, Christianity is immoral. (43:00)
