But I think you are on to something deeper than I can comprehend at the moment.
I have heard that it is impossible to have a God or source of life, without perfect morality or integrity, that righteousness is the necessity of eternal life.
We know by science that the recipients of life, cannot be born or survive without billions of correct conditions and processes. In other words life is a result of ultra sophistication and order, of such a high standard that it escapes the consciousness of its recipients.
If life is caused by a source of wisdom and integrity, then morality or righteousness, must be the basis of life, and that it deserves the attention and respect of creatures capable of reasoning.
And it goes without saying that if the Author of Life is disrespected, or if life is regarded as cheap, that the offending person has to be dealt with accordingly.
