The problem with that philosophy is that your understanding of morality changes to fit the current generation's thoughts of right and wrong. Which means your morality ceases to be a corner stone for anything, and becomes a thermometer of pop culture. To judge anything or anyone with your trivial standard/ pop culture is only a testament to one's own self righteousness.What a hilariously long winded way of entirely avoiding my questions. You don't even know what my understanding of morality -is- numbskull (and I doubt I'd waste my time if you asked). So whether it's the current generations, whether it's a cornerstone of anything, or a "thermometer of pop culture" is entirely beyond you to comment upon. Such is the nature of your faith in apologetics though, isn't it? Constantly pitching straw. When asked a question, you respond not to the question, but with the contents of an index card on an unrelated subject. Your sage wisdom on morality derives from whether or not I dress funny, and what that might mean, and to whom, and how it might be invalidated......and -that- is some funny shit.
That would be like someone from the 60's looking from someone today and saying they dress funny.. Again by who's standards? The pop culture standard of the 60's? What if we are no longer bound by the pop standard of that time? Then of course that judgement is deemed null and void.
So to is any judgement of morality against God based on our current pop culture beliefs of right and wrong.
