HAYLEY’S BIBLE BENDER:
Today’s Bible bender for me was the quote from Rabbi Stewart Vogel in explaining the danger of creating our own morality: “If each of us creates his own meaning, we also create our own morality. I cannot believe this. For if so, what the Nazis did was not immoral because German society had accepted it. Likewise, the subjective morality of every majority culture throughout the world could validate their heinous behavior. It comes down to a very simple matter: Without God there is no objective meaning to live, nor is there an objective morality. I do not want to live in a world where right and wrong are subjective.” That quote had a lot to unpack with it for me, especially in today’s culture of ‘my truths’.
