You: What about the people in those "sinful" societies? If they listen to their hearts, won't they see that what they are doing is wrong?
Aaron: Yes, but they are unable to do so without belief in the one true Christian God. Their personal desires, their preconception and faith in false gods, make them impure and blind.
You: You are essentially saying that God will show the difference between good and evil to anyone, but that those who disagree with you on the subject are doing so because they are not as holy as you. In that we cannot measure holiness, this argument has reached a ridiculous impasse.
Aaron: The only thing ridiculous here is your attitude. Once a person opens himself to the truth of God's presence, then that person is filled with holiness. It is true that there is no external measure for it, but to the individual the difference is obvious.
