  It's only self evident if you accept your own morality is subjective. There are people who think morality is defined by some invisible friend who is right about absolutly everything.

  In a single line, how do you differentiate between God and an imposter?
  Just five minutes of thinking can lead to these questions that destroy divine commandment theory. People just refuse to think...
