Answer:

C.S Lewis believed there is a universal Morality common to all societies, times and cultures, and that this universal morality proves the existence of God. C.S. Lewis claimed that all of us have an internal sense of morality to the right thing, and this can only be explained by the existence of God that created Human beings.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this morality is common to all human beings created by God, C.S. Lewis considers this morality to be an objective morality, like a common standard that we all have, knowing what is right and what is wrong. Opposing the subjective idea of a moral that is individual and personal.
