That's where morality comes in. It takes the absolute unchanging standard and makes provisions for 'some sin.' Sin society counts as small and would still allow one to be considered a 'good person.'
There has never been a standard of morality that hasn't changed. Lately it's been for the better because of the dropping of the biblical bits.
Quote:I do indeed see what you are saying. in that you think that because God could have put anything in his Law including boiling and eating babies, we would follow said law. That we gave Him unrestricted free reign to set the standard for good and sin. This is all true. However as I pointed out your hypothetical of boiling and eating babies nor any other horrific evil can never be considered nor counted as apart of God's law. God's law has been closed for over 2000 years. So whatever people 'claim' to be in the name of God but is not found in the bible is not 'for God'. It is not apart of Biblical Christianity, and it is not apart of His law. Therefore it can not be used to justify service of God in any way shape or form.
So your woman has to sacrifice a bird before being allowed back into your house after her period, you carry out repeated stonings and of course do not work on the Sabbath which of course is Saturday, Coz laws do not change not bitty bitty bit they don't.
Quote:That would be an example of evil men using God as an excuse to allow the evil in their hearts to play out, and hoping you are too stupid to know any better.
Evil men use religions to bend their followers to their will by claiming god or gods guidance all the time.
Quote:As are as being in contact with people, this is true. However the only way we have to discern who is speaking with us (ourselves/Delusion or Satan) is to take what is said and hold it up to scripture to make sure both jive with one another.
Men wrote the bible. So you are just following the prejudice of a rather intolerant age.
Quote:a 'spirit of light'/angel supposedly set up Islam and Mormonism. He was well dressed and inspired both 'prophets' to go off path of scripture. Jesus Himself warns us of this very thing.
People make up all sorts of shit don't they!
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
