Where Do Good and Evil Come From?
Where do good and e from? Some possibilities that have been proposed include evolution, reason, conscience, human nature, and utilitarianism. But as Boston College philosopher Peter Kreeft explains in the video below, none of these can be a source of objective morality. So where does e from? “The very existence of morality proves the existence of something beyond nature and beyond man,” says Kreeft. “Just as a design suggests a designer, mands suggest a mander.

Heaven’s Not Just for Progressives
Any number of meanings are attached to “the Kingdom of God” as an essential element of Jesus’ teaching for Christian praxis.
