A question about the argument for the existence of God requiring moral validity

שו”תCategory: philosophyA question about the argument for the existence of God requiring moral validity
asked 4 years ago

Hello Rabbi, I saw your discussion with Professor Enoch about morality and God.
I wanted to ask about the claim that the existence of objective, valid morality requires God (no matter how limited).

  1. Who is the first philosopher you know who claimed it?
  2. From what I understand, Kant also claimed this. Did I understand correctly?
  3. Who are generally the most well-known philosophers you know of in human thought who have made the above argument?

Thank you in advance, Happy holiday.

  1. I have no idea, and I don’t see why it’s interesting either.
  2. In my opinion, yes, and I explained this in the fourth conversation in part 3 (although it is commonly thought that he is talking about humanistic morality without God).
  3. There are many, and I don’t know how to list them.

What fourth conversation? From some faith-based company? I didn't understand.

A fourth notebook here on the site or a fourth conversation in the first existing book.
