That actually brings me to my next questions...
Why is natural law so often presented in such a way that it comes as unfalsifiable? In other words, How do you know God's way is your way even when others, at least appear, have better morals? What I mean by that is that I've seen Catholics use phrases like "seared conscience", "hardened heart", "Satan's deception", or some other term in blogs, writings, discussions, debates etc when someone brings up a good argument against the Catholic position, especially when it comes up to how their conscience leads them elsewhere to thinking the argument against whatever position is the right one. For example, I once read an article one time that called pro-choice (for the record, I'm pro-life) individuals as having a "seared conscience" because essentially had been convinced by pro-choice arguments. It essentially sounds to me like when phrases and terms like that are used that it's presenting and arguing natural law like it is unfalsifiable.
