Another one that just doesn't know better. Moralities that come from gods (or any other subject) are, by definition, subjective.
Furthermore, having access to all facts would not by itself satisfy the criteria of a moral actor. I could have access to all the facts about a poison and it's effect on people, and that wouldn't make my poisoning someone objectively moral. For there to be an objective morality there must be moral facts. For a competent actor to be deemed moral it must also adhere to whatever those facts are.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
