If There Is No God Principles - Dennis Prager’s Battle for Moral Truth in an Age of Feelings and Relativism #952758

When Morality Becomes a Matter of Opinion, Who Decides What Is Right?

What happens to good and evil when God is removed from the conversation?
In a time when feelings often outweigh facts and personal truth competes with moral truth, If There Is No God Principles confronts one of the most urgent questions of our age: can a society survive without a fixed moral foundation?
Many today believe morality can stand on reason alone. Others argue that empathy, social consensus, or human progress are enough. Yet beneath the surface lies a deeper issue. If moral rules are only human agreements, what binds them when they become inconvenient? If right and wrong are shaped by culture, what happens when culture changes? And if feelings define good and evil, who corrects destructive feelings?
Elias S. Rowe challenges readers to examine the consequences of a moral system detached from transcendence. Drawing from philosophy, history, cultural analysis, and theological reflection, this book explores whether objective moral truth can exist without a moral Lawgiver. It confronts difficult questions with clarity and intellectual honesty:

• Are murder, theft, and injustice wrong in themselves, or only because society says so?
• Can reason alone create moral obligation?
• If God exists, why does evil persist?
• If God does not exist, what becomes of human dignity?
• How should individuals live faithfully and courageously in a morally divided age?

Rather than offering shallow answers, Rowe invites readers into a serious examination of the foundations beneath their beliefs. He argues that without a transcendent anchor, morality drifts toward subjectivism, power struggles, and emotionalism. Yet he also calls for humility, self-examination, and moral discipline among those who claim belief.
Thought-provoking and direct, this book is written for believers seeking clarity, skeptics willing to reason, and anyone concerned about the moral direction of modern culture. It does not demand blind faith. It demands honest thinking.
If there is no God, moral truth must be reinvented by human hands.
If there is a God, moral truth is discovered—not designed.
The future of good and evil may depend on which path we choose.
