One of the things that distinguishes humankind from every other species on earth is that we have a moral dimension. A moral law seems to be programmed into our psychological ‘software’ and our awareness of it is triggered by the conscience, a mysterious monitor that pokes its nose into every nook and cranny of our lives.
Why should this be the case? Does our moral sense come from nature? Is it nothing more than a cultural phenomenon? Is personal preference the deciding factor? Have we any right to question another person’s moral choices? Are there consistent guidelines for deciding whether something is good or evil, right or wrong, just or unjust?
Beyond these and other related questions lies an even greater one: can we ever find a solid and coherent basis for morality unless our world view has God at the very centre of it?

’A challenging booklet: 40 pages are quickly read, but the digestion of some uncomfortable truths in them might take much longer and be of lasting benefit to anyone who has not thought deeply about the question posed in the title.’
’In his book, Blanchard questions whether ‘we can ever find a solid and coherent basis for morality unless our worldview has God at the very centre of it.’
’This is the latest booklet in the `Popular Christian Apologetics’ series from John Blanchard. Here, he looks at the issue of man’s moral dimension, and confronts the reader with the question: `Where does such a moral dimension come from?’
’Most of the readers of this magazine should be familiar with John Blanchard’s growing range of Christian apologetics that have rapidly established themselves as a strong defence of the faith as well as an excellent tool for evangelizing the sceptic and the secularist. On that basis, this latest book from the pen of this busy writer will be warmly welcomed’.
