That's what I was thinking. I'm not going to grant them their Bible in a debate on moral philosophy. They will just smuggle question begging assumptions into their definition of morality if they're a divine command theorist.

I don't believe criticizing moral theories on the ground that they led to actions we would deem shocking and terrifying is a reliable way of learning anything about morality if it exists at all.

It is very important not to mistake hemlock for parsley, but to believe or not believe in God is not important at all. - Denis Diderot

We are the United States of Amnesia, we learn nothing because we remember nothing. - Gore Vidal
