In part two we examine the claim commonly made by monotheists: If morals are not fixed and absolute, then how can anyone claim someone else's actions are wrong, such as those of Hitler? However, the problem lies with the very question itself. Anyone that believes in moral absolutes is immune from being challenged and will never change their mind about what they believe to be God's will, no matter what.
The only form of morality worth having is that which can be modified as new, factual evidence is discovered. We do not now nor ever will have all the answers, and to assume that our present-day morality is complete and no additional facts may be discovered that could provide greater insight into the nature of well-being is the highest order of arrogance and intellectual dishonesty.
Although it is possible for moral ideals to change, that is not to say Secular Morality does not have any objective truths, which we will thoroughly discussed in future episodes. However, to believe the entire basis of one's morality is predicated upon the ambiguous will of a God will only result in the appearance of hypocrisy on the part of the theist if they are to ever change their minds about they believe to be "God's will". Therefore, theist are forced to rail against any notion that morality does not come from God. It's interesting to note that despite what theists claim about being humble and seeking humility, they are far too proud to ever concede that they could be wrong, and that their understanding of divine morality is built upon superstition rather than facts and evidence.
