Frank Turek's sermon is truly preaching to the choir. Evangelical Christians love to tell themselves that unbelievers simply want to be free to pursue their sinful lusts, not that they have legitimate reasons to reject the claims and morality of Christianity itself.
On the subject on morality, many Christians promote their moral standards as objective--that is superior--because they come from their god. But all they have done is simply assert that their god exists, and that their god decides what is right or wrong, and then declare that these details are accurately documented in their holy book. Following these details without question is seen as virtuous; indeed, on his radio program, Don has praised the 9-11 hijackers for following what they believed were the commandments of their god.
Call it subjective if you like, but morality based on reason and compassion is far superior to faith-based religion.
