You yourself have explained numerous times that you believe your interpretation of that standard to be the most accurate. That the majority of self-proclaimed believers all over the world simply have the wrong idea and either have misinterpreted or have not studied The Bible in the correct translation. From that perspective their crime is not lack of faith but lack of knowledge or insight. There are plenty of people making every effort to bow but you have repeatedly argued in the past that you are one of the few bowing in the correct way.
Is this how a perfect being communicates something it thinks important? It would seem less than effective.
The above statement is a strawman and a complete evade of what i just said. do you want to address what I said or segway into this somehow? what about a concession.. Because your current response does not address what I've said here or have been saying in any way shape or form.
It is in no way a stawman. I have highlighted a stance you have expressed in many, many threads to underline how many people this supposedly transcendent morality eludes. Atheists and theists alike.
From your perspective you have the "perfect" morality at your finger tips. Your interpretation is the correct one and it eludes almost everyone else.
How do you explain this morality not being so apparent to your fellow theists? Is that all self-righteousness too? Brave choice of words by the way.
I understand that line of reasoning might potentially lead to some unsettling questions and I apologize for any discomfort you may feel... but do not accuse me of evasion when I am directly addressing the issue and do not cry "strawman" when I cite views you have expressed in the past.
Its obvious, desperate and embarrassing for everyone. I have little patience for it.
