Can you explain why different people have different ideas about what is right and wrong?

If our "inbuilt sense of right and wrong" comes from God, why do I disagree with you on the subject of assisted dying? I probably disagree with you on a number of other issues of right and wrong too. I doubt that we agree on the right of everybody to get married to the person they love or possibly abortion or a number of other moral issues.

I know my views on several of these issues have changed over the years as I've got more experience of the World and heard more viewpoints from other people. My sense of right and wrong is not inbuilt, it's learned.
And, of course, it's not just that you are an evil atheist but Christians disagree on this, and some disagree with Alan.

ETA even Archbishops of Canterbury disagree with each other
