"Mere Christianity" - Book 1

Footnotes and important facts about the first few chapters. PS...this book is totally deep! It's gonna take a while to get through it.

"Right and Wrong as a Clue to the Meaning of the Universe"

There is an understood sense of Right and Wrong or "morality" or Human Nature or whatever you want to call it to sort of govern mankind. These laws are an inherent part of our humanness as much as gravity and biology are a part or the Natural Laws of Science. The laws of nature we are bound to without dispute but we can choose to obey the laws or Human Nature. However, whether we choose to be moral (obey the laws of Human Nature) or not, they are still as foundational and obvious to man as are the laws of science (ie. gravity).
Two points of Chapter 1:
"First, that human beings, all over the earth, have this curious idea that they ought to behave in a certain way, and cannot really get rid of it. Secondly, that they do not in fact behave in that way. They know the Law of Nature; they break it. These two facts are the foundation of all clear thinking about ourselves and the universe we live in."

"Some Objections"
"Feeling a desire to help is quite different from feeling that you ought to help whether you want to or not."
There can never be moral progress..."if no set of moral ideas were truer or better than any other, there would be no sense in preferring civilized morality to savage morality, or Christian morality to Nazi morality."
