(December 6, 2013 at 12:25 pm)Drich Wrote: His Will Directs God to do what He does. God is not controled by a set of rules. The rules reflect what God does. (What you think you know, is backwards) for if God was subject to a standard of right and wrong, then that would mean God is not the Alpha and Omega. The Term means He is the first and last word/authority on all things. Meaning if God saw fit to have us kill and eat our first born, the rules of right and wrong would change to accept His will. Again that is what it is to be Alpha and Omega. There are no rules or standards above Him. He is the orgin of all rules and standards.
And yet again, we get on the "Drich avoids the question" ride. What directs what God wills? If it is not what he values, then it's necessarily arbitrary and random, since he does so for NO reason at all. Can be be any less intelligible?
Are you capable on answering a question without elision and tap dancing? You aren't even applying your own definitions correctly. If God's nature were the standard, then it's the most stupid possible objection to complain that God would be subject to it. And this is where we see the true problem with people who cannot reason properly: You say stupid shit without realizing the position you've put yourself in. If God's nature is the standard, OF COURSE he's going to be 'subject' to it. It's founded IN HIMSELF.
Really? You're going with that as what being the "Alpha and Omega" entails? Prey tell how God is the last say on them? The only way out is to give your opinion that he is, to appeal to your value in other words. Even God would have to do this.
Quote:No. The bible says Whatever God does is considered to be 'Good.' The difference? "doing good" subjugates the do gooder to the rules of 'good.' while If you Are the standard of Good then everything you do no matter what it is becomes 'good.'
Firstly, why should I care that the Bible says it? Inept, ignorant human authors on the one hand, and on the other, your appeal to the Bible saying it SHOULD be considered such, which is an appeal to a value. And even your own attempt to reason here is nonsensical. "No matter what God does"? Okay, what if God decides to not be himself? Contradictory, yes, but on your view then that's good, even though only God is to be considered such.
Quote:For example if God does 'good' then there is a paradox with what God did to Job and smashing babies against the rock. Now conversly if God is the standard of good then what happened to Job and the babies against rocks Becomes a 'good' act.
Drich, we already knew your were psychotic, no need to flaunt more than you have. Further, your response makes no sense (sensing a pattern here...) If God has no reason why he does things, he is no standard of anything at all, he just does things for no reason at all. Which is another self-defeating aspect I seem to have unearthed from you.
Quote: If this is true then you surly must have a biblical example of God's values changing...
Drich, tell me where I said that God's values change? Go on, I'll wait for you to realize your blunder.
Quote:In your system of belief in man's morality no of course their isn't if there were it would not be subject to change.
which is the very point of the thread. thank you.
Oh boy Drich, realized you couldn't respond to the rest I see. No Drich, I was pointing out that even if your worldview were true, there would be no 'absolute' morality. We know you have reasoning deficiencies Drich, I'd hate for you to reveal a reading comprehension one as well...
