Morality
This is a very simple argument, yet it is not as common as the others. This is also a very tragic argument against atheism, not just evolution and the big bang, I mean the whole religion of atheism. Actually, this argument is also good against every other false religion. And the best part is... There's no science involved.
First let's define morality. Morality is your sense of right and wrong, good and bad. We do not know right from wrong by ourselves, we have to learn, whether it be from our parents or teachers or experiences.
This argument has a few stages, if you are going to use this argument start off by asking the atheist this: "without God, How do you tell right from wrong?" The atheists do. in fact, have an answer.
The atheists have what they call, "Relative morality". This is basically a "fix-it-as-you-go" type of morality. We make up our own rules. So ask the atheist "Without God, how do you tell right from wrong?" The atheist will say something like, "I learned as I grew up, from my parents, teachers, and experiences." Then just ask, "Where did they learn right from wrong?" The atheist might say, "From their parents, teachers, and experiences..." Ask the same question, "Where did they learn right from wrong?" If you keep doing this, you can't go on forever. Eventually his morality will trace back to amonkey, and the Christian's morality will be traced back down to Adam.
Then atheist might come up with a counter argument, it may go like this, "Well, if a murderer got his morality from his parents, then doesn't that make his parents murderers? And his grandparents? And his great grandparents? If you trace that back, we're all murderers!" This is not the case, yes we're all murderers, Jesus said if you hate someone you've murdered them in your heart. But, people's morality can change. That's why God designed us with a conscience.
WHEN YOU DO SOMETHING THAT IS OPPOSITE OF THE 10 COMMANDMENTS, YOUR CONSCIENCE TELLS YOU WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS WRONG. iF YOU DO SOMETHING CONTRARY TO THE QU' RAN (KORAN, THE ISLAM "BIBLE") YOUR CONSCIENCE DOESN'T TELL YOU ANYTHING. OUR CONSCIENCE WAS DESIGNED TO MATCH GOD'S RULES.
The atheist might also say something like, "Morality is common sense!" In a Christian universe it is! You see, if morality was common sense, we need an ultimate standard. Sure, murder is right to a murderer, but why does the vast majority say murder is wrong? Because our ultimate standard says it's wrong. Our ultimate standard is the Bible. Atheism can't make use of morality because they're morality is "Man makes up his own rules", if that were true, whose to say anyone is wrong? Atheism must steal morality from Christianity, and it's wrong to steal, right? So what do you ask the atheist? Ask them this: Without God, How do you tell right from wrong? What is our ultimate standard? Where did the sense of morality come from?
