Then, as Ryan said, you reject the idea of objective moral standards.

A being, however wise or powerful, decides = subjective.
Well, I don't know the exact criteria of what constitutes as objective morality, but for me God is always correct in His decisions because of His attributes. Maybe it's a bit like someone 5000 years ago saying that the Earth isn't flat or something, at which point it is a subjective statement, but what makes it objective are later breakthroughs in physics and astronomy. I don't know whether that's an accurate analogy, just putting it out there.
