No it doesn’t,
It does, very simply stated. We punish according to the weight of the crime, not the relative authority of the punitive body. To do otherwise would be -unjust- in our system. If you have a problem with the bar - which is what you seem to be trying to say - then that's another issue entirely. I think that you simply can't find any way to support the example of injustice you offered up - but would not accept from any earthly authority. You've set a lower bar for your god - by invoking it's "infinite" or "ultimate" authority...which is one of the most amusingly ironic things I've seen in awhile.

Quote:I have never claimed that either of us have a perfect understanding of justice, so whether or not our understanding of justice matches with God’s is irrelevant.
A perfect understanding is not required to compare the two offerings on the table. We only have to understand the two claims in opposition. One is that appropriate punitive measures are those in which the punishment is commensurate to -the crime-.....the other is that appropriate punitive measures are those in which punishment is commensurate to -the level of authority of the adjudicating body-.
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 am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. 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!
