Hello. Perhaps you have seen some of the advertisements for humanism. In them leading celebrities attest to their humanist view that we can have a moral society without religion. Is that true? In other words, can we be good without God? The biblical view is that the source of goodness is God. A man once claimed that Jesus was good, and Christ’s reply was that only God is good. The very idea of “good” comes from God, and all goodness, no matter who expresses it, belongs to God. People may try to create a moral framework for a life without God, but, whenever they are kind or loving, those various ideas don’t come from our selfish genes, they come from God through whom all good gifts flow. God is good. And yes, all the time. Best regards, James.
