Where does morality come from? Some claim God is the ultimate source of all moral values and duties. Others disagree. Dr. Erik Wielenberg (atheist) argues that morality doesn’t come from anywhere, it just is; morality has no, and needs no, explanation. Dr. William Lane Craig (Christian) argues that God is the best explanation for objective morality. Who is correct?

On April 4, 2009, William Lane Craig and Christopher Hitchens met at Biola University to debate the question of God's existence. In front of an overflow crowd and a global internet audience, they debated the origin and design of the universe, the implications of human morality, the deity of Jesus, and the validity of Christ's resurrection. It was a compelling clash of worldviews and an examination of the major arguments for and against Christianity and atheism.
