A few years ago, I saw an article about some scientists designing a drug to alter the brain to increase so-called prosocial behaviors and decrease “antisocial” ones. Now, these basically would be pills for a better, more moral you. But who determines what’s moral?

Without an ultimate standard, the individual or the group must decide right from wrong. But what if my right and wrong is different from yours? Or my government’s from yours? Who decides then? And what makes anyone’s opinion more right than anyone else’s?

We must appeal to an ultimate standard for morality—and we have one. The authority of the Word of God, given to us by our Creator.
