Apparently, it is.... because your god failed to do so?
Quote:Taken at face value, the claim that Nigel has a moral obligation to keep his promise, like the claim that Nyx is a black cat, purports to report a fact and is true if things are as the claim purports. Moral realists are those who think that, in these respects, things should be taken at face value—moral claims do purport to report facts and are true if they get the facts right.https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/moral-realism/
Notice, if you will, that there is no caveat in that statement "nigel has a moral obligation" or "nyx is a black cat"....if and only if there is at least one god. If and only if..christianity ever happened.
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 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!
