I have been all all over the world, both in and out of the military.
I ask these young folks, with brains of mush, does evil exist? I have seen it firsthand.
If they answer no, then then have them explain Stalin, Hitler. Pol Pot, Mao, etc.
If yes, then good must exist too. And, therefore, a moral code. Where does that come from.
Usually you will hear the answer “The golden rule” or treat others as you want to be treated.
The don’t even know that is a quote from Jesus from the Bible.

Just because an observation is in the Bible doesnt mean it originated there. The do unto others policy is the building block of any social contract that allows humans to cooperate for their survival. It doesnt require a Supreme Being in order to be discovered or implemented.

Partner, these academic folk do not have any idea of how many folks they killed and these leaders that you mentioned are responsible for millions upon millions of deaths. It is so sad when you start thinking about all of these deaths.
Fidel Castro even had Che Guevara be an executioner and he shot most folks in the head plus Che is responsible for executing around 30,000 folks. Do they young folk know these little facts. Raul Castro who is the current leader is responsible for a lot of these deaths also.
We have not mentioned Hitler and other irresponsible so called leaders who were put in charge of executions in their country.
