So, sexual abuse will be always morally wrong with God.So what you;re telling me is that sexual abuse being wrong has nothing to do with god making it wrong, or even it being....well, wrong, just an inability of god to have made it right?
Quote:2. Well, if you may, please let me know how I have been inconsistent in the usage of the terms negation.NP, you used the term subjective to refer to a particular entities moral opinions or proclamations, specifically in reference to human beings. This too, if you remain consistent to that sense, would refer to god's moral opinions or proclamations as a particular entity, specifically in juxtaposition with other entities and differing opinions...say, those human beings from before.
You used the term "objective" -what you clearly see as the opposite of subjective, it's negation.... instead, to refer to gods opinions being, essentially..the right opinions, because he made them, and made them as such..and apparently, had no power or ability to have made them otherwise.
Just to follow up...to my mind, whatever made it such that god could not have made a moral position other than as it is, would be the moral authority that I appealed to, not god. Gods just a mouthpeice for whatever that is, if he has no control over what is and is not good or evil.
