Everything that exists, including our moral standards, comes from God so what standard can we use to morally assess him. At the very least we should show gratitude to him for creating us in the first place.

Well my morals certainly dont come from the bible, I would be very afraid of anyone who did base their morals on it because I have read it, scary shit man.
