I didn't [yet] propose that God is the standard of goodness. I'm asking you to define your terms and provide a standard by which to measure. In using words like "good," "bad," and "terrible" to argue your position, you're assuming standards of good, bad, moral, immoral, etc. I'm asking you to define your standard and to give an account for it.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
