By your slanted measure, Of Course God does not meet the standards of this generations popular morality, because it is a substandard standard.

I was talking about the words, Drich: instead of answering questions you often tell people what words they should have used. Well, that's kind of annoying and all, but since you surely understood the underlying question, being a sapient being who's probably quite smart aside from this one religious barnacle on your brain, why not answer the question the first time instead of making us all leap through these verbal hoops first?

Save some time, bub! Wink

Quote:I do, we all do for all are self righteous to one degree or another. The determining factor is the question. Does our self righteousness/morality rule our lives or do we yeild our 'morality' to God's stated righteousness and seek forgiveness for our short commings.

So a big part of your job as a good christian is silencing your own morality in order to serve god? That doesn't strike you as a tad creepy?

Quote:Because this 'personal revelation' is deemed a sin by the NT (Which is why I said no Christian would burn witches) I can spit in the d-bags eye pretending to be God.

Nice way to avoid answering the question. I'll amend things, then: if you had an explicit instruction from god, in the parts of the bible you do follow, to murder one child a month as a sacrifice to your god- yet nothing else in the world changes and you would still go to jail for it, say- would you do it?

...even if the rest of you retained the same 'morality' you currently enjoy.

This seems more like it. Will you stick with this answer? Because that's just awful, and I can now say, safely, that my morality is better than your divine commands, because to me, murder is always wrong.
