See, now you're just stuck, because "god's morality," according to the book you take it all from, states that slavery, the murder of children, gays, apostates, witches and heathens are moral, while the consumption of shellfish and the wearing of mixed fabrics are immoral.
The standard apologetic, here, is that god was using a separate set of rules due to the realities of the time, which are different now: in essence, that these things were morally permissible at one time, but not now. In that view, morality has changed, and rather than dealing with actual morality, you're simply following orders. Given this, there is no morality for you: if god ordered you to murder a child- an act you probably believe is immoral now- then you'd have to accept that it's moral so long as your god says so.
The other apologetic is that the book was written by men and therefore not wholly accurate regarding god's morality: in this case, you have no way to determine what is and isn't god's morality at all.
Enjoy!
