My views on objective morality

[Mystic]

In which case you are asserting that there is an objective standard, but that we don't know what that standard is?  If so, how do we know there is an objective standard?

I think the more civilized we become, the more clearly we are able to understand certain things. Thousands of years ago, perhaps most of humanity didn't see slavery as being wrong. (or maybe deep inside they did, but chose to ignored it or tried to rationalize it). Whatever the case, now a days we know better, and have come to understand that human beings have the inherent right to their own lives.

The problem with this it makes it as if the last of humans are the only ones are going to have access to objective morality. Everyone else just have pieces here and there and mixed in it with great evils (like enslaving entire people was ok for some people).

The real issue is that objective morality and it's various stages, and the path of God, is something we are meant to travel to.

That is why in all times, before and after Jesus, in all times,  there must be a way for humanity to connect to God and the guidance.

God could of spoken to every soul, but it seems, according to Judaism, Chrisitianity, and Islam, he honored beings like Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and made the means towards God, his Kings on earth by which people are ruled spiritually by God.

We also can observe that people aren't guided all directly by God.

Jesus was an anointed King by God for example, despite, not having an army, officials, etc.

I don't know personally if Simon or James succeeded Jesus,  the Shia hadiths suggest it was Simon, but Quranic way of blood relationships inheriting one another, it would seem it would be James.

But no matter who truly succeeded, the successor is not person who doesn't have access to the divine light and sees things with vision of God's sight. He is rather God's eyes and hands on earth. And as he is God's eyes seeing with vision, and we need eyes to see, we ought to make them the eyes to our heads as well, by which we see.

He is God's face on earth.

Whether such a guide is hidden or manifest,  he remains the way to know the path perfectly. He is the guide on earth, the leader of God's friends towards God and by which they turn to God. 

He is the manifestation of God's will and plan to each individual.  Each individual can become part of God's plan through the leader of time, and play particular roles by obeying the command of the God's appointed Master of humanity, and fulfilling his wishes and helping in his way.

Not only can we know what is generally right or wrong through this appointed Master, but, we can know particularly, what we must do to spiritually advance as well as our role in the greater whole of life and become part of God's plan.

A lot of the manifestation of inward guidance cannot be just told in words or shown physically, but must be shown in spiritual forms and states to imitate. 

But aside from that, is God's plan with every soul, and God's Leader and Guide is the way for God to prove his particular plan for every soul that comes to God with repeatedly turning heart towards God.
