Ha ha, whoa: when did you establish the existence of moral absolutes?
I haven't established any moral absolutes. But I think that some (a few) moral absolutes exist. One of these is, "You shall have no other gods before Me." In this commandment, God is saying that He alone is their God even if they turn away from Him and start worshiping one or more false gods. By this one commandment, all of us are condemned as lawbreakers since all of us at times have desired some one or something more than God. For some, the love of money becomes a violation of this command, for others, pride in one's own worthiness, for others, political power. There are so many things that we humans can place above God in our lives. I'm a sinner condemned by this law myself.
