"Are you good without God? Millions are" is the message on 10 new billboards in the Sacramento, CA area.

"Good" is a moral evaluation. So by what standard do they make the definitive claim that millions are "good"? Given the rejection of an objective moral authority all they can do is appeal to their personal preference. So is Jeffery Dahlmer "good" if he thinks so from his personal preference?

2004 Interview: Obama Talks about Jesus, Heaven and Sin June 3, 2008 (CBN)

GG: Do you believe in sin?

OBAMA: Yes.

GG: What is sin?

OBAMA: Being out of alignment with my values.

GG: What happens if you have sin in your life?

OBAMA: I think it’s the same thing as the question about heaven. In the same way that if I’m true to myself and my faith that that is its own reward, when I’m not true to it, it’s its own punishment.”
