William Lane Craig’s Moral Argument
1. If GOD DOES NOT EXIST then OBJECTIVE MORAL VALUES do not exist (If P THEN Q)
2. OBJECTIVE MORAL VALUES do exist (NOT Q)
3. There GOD EXISTS (Therefor NOT P)
MODUS TOLLENS - taking away or denying the consequence.
If P, then Q.
Not Q.
Therefore, not P.
Notice the conclusion is a negation - Not (God does not exist )
The only way to DENY this argument is to demonstrate and ground OBJECTIVE moral values apart from God, OR affirm moral RELATIVISM
