“Abstract academic debates about relativism sound impressive in seminar rooms. They sound absurd amid the piles of shoes at Auschwitz.”

Andrew Walker, professor of Christian ethics at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, articulates powerful and much-needed truth here that the Nuremberg trials stand “as a modern vindication of the moral law of God—the natural law . . .  the crimes of the Nazis were not merely offenses against other nations; they were violations of the very grain of the universe—the moral order stitched into creation . . . the moral horror we feel in the face of Nazi atrocities teaches an additional truth: There were no atheists at Nuremberg.”
