comment What does the Bible say about deducing God's will from celestial or weather events?
@Caleb, I'm voting to have this question reopened. While it's a wider question in scope on this site, I honestly still find it an interesting question, and would enjoy seeing the answers that result from it.

comment Atheism is the default position. Isn't the burden of proof on the Christian to assert that God exists?
@Caleb, I'd consider also including Romans 1:21. "For although they knew God" is one of the clearest descriptions of the default position that I know of in Scripture.

comment Why were the people of Exodus so stubborn?
Well, on the whole, the Israelites did obey God, but that doesn't mean that there were those among them who didn't. Achan was a good example, who took some of the devoted things, and in Joshua 7:1, God's anger burned against the Israelites. They were also deceived by the Gibeonites because they didn't consult the Lord. For a while they obeyed better than their parents, but more than likely out of fear. That being said, their fear-based obedience didn't last. Keep in mind that Judges is immediately after Joshua.

comment Do Christians have secret handshakes?
Thanks. I appreciate the directness and the link. Don't be afraid to simply say, "This comes from a movie in the 50's". It'd save us both alot of time.

comment Do Christians believe in Ethical Relativism, in other words, that good and bad are determined by culture, society, tradtions, etc?
I believe I answered the moral relativism question with the Matthew 5:18 verse. As for the other things you're unsure about, those things don't seem to be wholly relevant to the question at all, at least not in the way the OP framed it. For example whether or not the law can be arrived at outside the scriptures is a different question entirely. He asked about relativism, and assumed points in his question that needed to be addressed. He didn't ask whether somebody could come to godly conclusions independent of the scripture. That's a different question.
