D.A. Carson - Atheism & Idolatry

This video is from a lecture given by Dr. D. A. Carson. You can find the entire lecture at http://thegospelcoalition.org/resources/name-index/a/DA_Carson.
Pay close attention to the quote at the beginning. Also, the audio is low. Not my fault and nothing I could do about it. Just turn up the volume on your computer.

I've seen people doing good, so the bible is in error.

@Chuck1863: Your definition doesn't count. The biblical standard is absolute perfection in thought and deed. So there is none good.

[Chuck1863]

@theocratickingdom30 It doesn't say none are good. It says none doeth good. You don't have to be perfectly good to do good. The bible is wrong.

[theocratickingdom30]

@Chuck1863: His standard of good not yours.

[Chuck1863]

@theocratickingdom30 Good is subjective. I don't meed his standards and he doesn't meet mine. Some of the things I do are good by the standards of the people I do them for. The bible doesn't say "None doeth good by God's standards." It just says "None doeth good." The bible is wrong. Its author doesn't even know what he's talking about.

@Chuck1863: Define good

[theocratickingdom30]

@Chuck1863: Define good

[Chuck1863]

@theocratickingdom30 There are dictionaries full of definitions. An action that meets one more more of them can generally be considered good, but of course it's subjective. There may be disagreements among various people.

Interesting .. with that high-pitched rhetoric I kept waiting for the punchline... Sounded more like a sermon at the end.
