... Read moreThe existence of objective morality has long been a topic of debate among philosophers, theologians, and social scientists. Objective morality suggests that some moral principles are universally applicable and true, independent of personal beliefs or cultural standards. This concept raises intriguing questions about the origins of moral standards. Many argue that these moral truths stem from a higher power or benevolent deity, as indicated by biblical texts such as Genesis 3:5. The reference to knowledge of good and evil implies an inherent understanding of morality that is mirrored throughout different cultures and societies. Interestingly, historical records by notable figures like Tacitus, a prominent Roman historian, shed light on the early Christian community and the reality of Christ's existence. His writings, particularly the Annals, confirm the persecution of Christians during the Roman Empire, underscoring the significance of their moral convictions in a hostile environment. Moreover, Pliny the Younger’s letters to Emperor Trajan provide insight into early Christian practices and their commitment to moral conduct, which reinforces the idea that objective morality influences societal laws and norms. The consistent appearance of moral values across various civilizations highlights an intrinsic human need for morality that transcends individual opinions. This leads to the compelling argument that the origins of morality may be rooted in divine influence, thus affirming the existence of God as a necessary foundation of objective moral principles.

“Junk” Journaling before the hype!
Before “junk” journaling was popular, I was doing this all the time. I never called what I put in my journal junk because to me, it was a moment and a memory 😊. I’ve always been one to work outside of the box and do something different because “normal” is boring. I need color, change, and a little
