Racism, rape, child abuse - they’re so obviously wrong that it’s hard to argue they’re not moral absolutes. Yet morality is difficult to build on science, on society or the individual.
New Atheists recoil at the idea of God as the source of morality. In other episodes we have examined society, the individual, science and genetics as sources of morality. but in this episode God is seen to be the ultimate foundation for morality, despite the moral failings of religion.

Thomas discovered a faith in God that stood up to his deepest doubts and hardest questions and filled him with a hope that he was willing to die for.
Why do some people choose to die for their faith?
