That's not an answer to my question, though.

I asked why god determined what was right and what was wrong. Whether he had any actual reason for doing so, something that serves a purpose here, or whether he was, as my earlier example showed, like the god Nuggan, making onions into a sin because he doesn't like them.

Answer that question, why don't you?
