Objective only deals with people, not God. Since God does not change any of His moral commands will never change. He is also able to inforce this law and no one can over turn it. There is nothing out of His control so everything is subject to Him.
If you don't believe that there is an absolute then how do you account for knowlege? You have no foundation to base anything off of.
How can you do any research because you can't even trust your methods of research. You can not establish the correct way to research without an absolute. All of your conclusions are meaningless because there is a lack of foundation.
There is a truth and there is a truth giver. I can know things because God who has infinite knowledge has reviled this knowledge to me. You do not live as if there are no absolutes because you do not live as thought tomorrow would suddenly be a completly differnt reality. Not just that the world has systems if there were no absolutes then you would not see any natural laws.
God is a person. If he wasn't, there wouldn't be a point in worshiping him. A place, thing, or idea can't reward or punish you for anything. Just because he doesn't change (which is debatable) doesn't mean he got it right the first time. It just means he's stubborn. His ideas of the way things should be are as subjective as any. The only difference is that he's apparently top dog. if anyone overthrew him, their opinions would be the absolute morality somehow.
There are some things that can be absolute. Morality isn't one of them. I have said this before.
We can trust a method of research that can be cross-examined by other people, using multiple sources if possible. We make theories about things that have been repeatedly tested through multiple means, and reached the same conclusion. It remains a theory because something might come along to change it, but just because we don't know everything about how something works now, doesn't make it useless.
Your god doesn't seem to be good at handing down truth, given how many of his followers have died over disagreements over the truth he's trying to hand down.
God is not a person He is God a deity a almighty being. We are made like Him, He is not like us.
If there is no moral absolute then you have no foundation on which to judge anything as right and wrong. You would be just arbitrarily stating what is right and wrong.
I can't trust your judgment on what you say about God and His people because you don't have a foundation on which to make judgements.
