The Ten Commandments represent the crucial and non-obvious claim that morality is something given and discovered rather than merely invented by humans.

The central purpose of human life is defined by the Book of Genesis as leaving one's parents to marry a member of the opposite sex and have children.

Mike Majlak asserts that God maintains justice by holding individuals accountable for the harm they cause to others because every person has value to Him.
