Today we are joined by Dr. Max Baker-Hytch, a tutorial fellow in Philosophy at Oxford University, to discuss Lewis and the moral argument for God's existence. What did Lewis mean by a universal moral law, and why did he think it pointed to something beyond nature? They explore the foundations of this argument, its philosophical roots, and the critiques it has faced. Does morality require a Moral Lawgiver? Can natural selection or social convention fully explain our sense of “right” and “wrong”? And what might this argument mean for how we live today, in a culture where moral truth is often seen as relative?
