OK! So that shows that your morality, at least on this issue, has nothing to do with God. You have made your own decision that it is wrong/immoral whatever you want to call it, and you hold your opinion higher even than god's.
Of course, what I'm hearing is that you're happy for God to be the author of morality as long as he agrees with you; as soon as he doesn't, you revert to your own morality. This is what everyone does in my opinion, they just don't realise it God is a mirror.
Additional: here's an interesting take on it. Can you list the things that you currently consider immoral that you'd be willing to change your mind about if God told you to? Same question for things that are moral. Obviously rape is not on the list of immoral things you would change your mind about.
I'm going to make a separate topic about this!
