God does not follow the first principle of morality. Why not?

[quote]A being of perfect good should, by that very definition, never appear to be of lesser morality when his behavior is compared to inferior morals.[/quote]What you people seem to not comprehend is that if your "inferrior morals" are always changing to suit your current sin status then
God's Standard will never line up with what you have changed to suit the sins you are willing to live with. Leaving you with a problem Because of the gulf between your personal righteousness and God's one must be 'judged' as inferior to another. As you Have created a standard to become superior to God then it is not likly that you will or ever can see yourself as being les than Good. Which makes God the immoral one, each and every time.

[quote]According to you, God gave me free will specifically so I would choose either to submit or not to submit. What motivates me to choose one or the other?[/quote]You are born into one choice. For you have no choice NOT to submit. Submition is the only true choice you have been given.

[quote]And yet you oppose gay marriage and abortion and attempt to force God's Will on people who clearly do not wish to spend eternity with him, so obviously you do not adhere to your own beliefs in practice.[/quote]Again you have confused morality with God's law/Expressed Will. For I am trying (when I vote) to force my 'morality or my self righteousness onto you.

God's Will can Never be acheaved that is why Christ died.

[quote]I'm supposed to apologize to God because he made me inferior to himself? [/quote]You are simply supposed Seek God out. You have confused yourself with another religion.

[quote]This is the kernel of my point.

If God defines what 'Good' is, then any action I take which mirrors an act of God (in terms of intent; obviously not in magnitude of the deed) must also be Good. [/quote] The thing is with a mirror is always reflects absolutly everything a person does in front of it. Can you honestly say that you can do this? Can you truly mirror what God has done? If so (not a judgement) Then if God does seperates you from the rest of creation and banishes you to the void then simply say "let their be light" and mirror what God has done from that point on and you will be good.
