If you want to claim that God is morally perfect just because you say so, well, fine. I'll simply laugh in rebuttal.
And I'm sure I have pointed out to you that it is not necessary for us to be able to know what it means to be the "greatest possible being". I don't need a definition for that conception of God to be true just as I don't need to know all the natural numbers to understand the concept of infinity.
It's not an epistemological problem, Steve, as was already pointed out to you in that thread. As well as the problem that this results in your God's values being arbitrary and thus not an example of moral perfection in an independent thread. Regardless, we're back to God is good because you say so. And I'm the most beautiful woman in the world because I say so. Big deal. You can assert shit without reason. So can anybody. For the claim that God is morally perfect to have any value, it would have to be coherent. It isn't, so you're just muttering incomprehensible gibberish and hoping that nobody notices.
