ModelBreaker is absolutely correct. That thing called a conscience was put there by God to inform you of man.
If these bashers of self-evident truth are correct, it takes a Ph.D. in philosophy and expertise in debate to know right from wrong, which doesn't bode well for 99.999999999% of the world's population both presently and historically.

Sorry, that last post was meant to agree with trebb's response to modelbreaker.
Trebb is right. Your conscience is God's law inscribed in your mind and heart. God's law is also written in the Bible, but people had God's law in their heart and mind before the Bible was cannonized. Otherwise, how could some of the Gentiles, as Paul explained, unwittingly obey the law without having God's written law?

The Bible tells us that "men are without excuse" because "what may be known about God has been made plain to them, because God has made it plain to them."
It also tells us only one thing about atheism ... "the fool has said in his heart 'there is no God'"
As I said above, those who would argue against absolute, self-evident truth in an area that condemns them are quick to assume such "truth" for their pet causes.
One day, like it or not, "every knee shall bow ..."

That thing called a conscience was put there by God to inform you of man.Many conservatives accuse lesbians of being man-haters. If the root of lesbianism is indeed an inner revulsion towards men, does that mean God WANTS certain women to be lesbians?
What if someone grows up completely lacking revulsion for some or all of the things you've described (such as a sociopath)? Did God decide that person would be exempt from His moral laws (after all, if God wanted that person to follow His laws, he would have given the person a conscience!)
