Oh, gosh, C-L; I'm really sorry I missed your reply.
Murder: so, when God does it, it's not immoral?
Correct. That would be capital punishment...same as when we put a prisoner to death for a serious crime.
Quote:Rape: when God condones it it's not bad?
For context, in which verse does God do this?
Quote:Theft: do you really think that theft is an objectively immoral thing to do? You can't think of any reasons why you might condone theft?
Quote:Adultery: My grandmother was dying with Alzheimer's for a LONG time- she wasn't herself for the last six years of her life. Do you think it was objectively immoral for my 80-year-old grandfather to seek out companionship elsewhere while still devoting most of his time and energy to my grandmother?
Yes. "For better, for worse, in sickness and in health, till death do us part." Those words were part of my vows, anyway.
Quote:Slavery: when God condones it, it's not immoral?
I have already shown God softened slavery in ways that non-godly nations did not. I have also explained how God worked with His people over time to bring them to a more enlightened understanding.
Quote:Calumny: what if your god slandered Satan to make sure he didn't have more people to rule over in hell? Would that be immoral?
No. The example is absurd, because slander is a false statement and God doesn't lie.
It seems weird that you kinda want him to, somehow...
