Much better questions:
Was it moral for the god of the Bible to toss Adam and Eve out of Eden for disobeying a command despite the fact that at the time of disobedience they did not yet possess the moral knowledge to know that disobedience was bad?
How about the Noachide flood? Is it morally acceptable to drown millions of living beings because of a perception that everything has somehow turned evil, even the kittens and bunny rabbits and puppies?
What about David's infant son? WTF was going on there? Why kill the baby and not the adulterous, murderous David?
Oh, and that Jesus nonsense too. How is it even possible for one person to pay another person's moral debt? As I see it, anyone who willing accedes to substitutionary atonement, letting Jesus pay their alleged (and allegedly unpayable) debt, has taken the real "Mark of the Beast."
No, Mr. Xavier. Don't go lecturing us about morality when you practice a grossly immoral creed.
