Objective morality by definition needs no god to justify it; in fact, even god could not alter the qualities of an "objective morality" and if he could then it wouldn't be "objective" and would be robbed of all meaning. For example, if a god defined objective morality such that it was moral to burn children alive as a form of penitence, then we're no longer talking about "morality" as it is understood and are instead discussing the semantics regarding the capabilities of god. If god said that burning kids was moral, we'd have to create a new word for describing the quality that appears as inherent disgust at the idea of inflicting torment. |
