How is that different from a dictator who says "might equals right"? What if I don't agree with him?
I'd say a dictator is merely another human being, no different from yourself as a human being. He didn't create the universe. He isn't the ultimate supreme being of everything that exists. He didn't, Himself, create moral laws and design how they work and what they are.
Does Him being the creator of the universe make His opinion any less subjective? What you seem to be saying here is that so long as you are by far the biggest fish in the pond, that imbues your moral opinions with objectivity. How does that make sense? What does His 'authority' have to do with whether or not they are, a) merely His opinions or b) objective matters of fact?
