Moral Suspicions in Atheistic Thought: A Critical Study of Armin Navabi's Book 'Why There Is No God'

Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to discuss and respond to Armin Navabi's fourth debate, titled "The Origin of Morality from God, and Without God We Will Become Bad Humans," where he treats it as a mere claim by those who prove the existence of God, and mentions several atheistic doubts about it to deny the existence of God. Methodology: The nature of the study required the use of both inductive and critical methods, considering them suitable for this type of research. Results: The study concluded with several results, most notably: the existence of God Almighty was proven through various rational and logical evidence, such as the instinct argument and the providence argument. The study also showed the error of Armin's claim that God cannot be the source of morality and that morality arose only as a result of the evolution of living beings and the circumstances they go through. Conclusion: In light of the study's findings, the researchers recommend that students of knowledge complete a critical study of the remaining debates of Armin, respond to the atheistic doubts contained therein, and expand their study of the atheist doctrine, refuting its doubts and not relying solely on existing studies and responses.
