[Serious] What God's justification for eternal torment?

No, you cannot. If you could, you would've given some deductive argument doing so.

Yes, I am appealing to disagreement. Because there is disagreement over the definitions of good and evil. There cannot be an objective list of good/bad moral deeds in the absence of an absolute moral authority. I think you already conceaded this point, the latter has to be there, we just disagree on what it is.

I know, you are a moral realist. And I already showed you the flaw of your position: you are simply begging the question of right and wrong. Something is considered right, according to moral realism, if it is .... right.
