On theism, why do humans have moral duties even if there are objective moral values?

What the actual fuck? Where have I written anything about what my language does or does not have?

In the first part of your response you chose to ignore that it says that it was rewarding because God made it so. In the second part of your response you chose to ignore that it was rewarding "in itself." Neither are (sic) likely to be justified by any language difficulties but rather instead point to general incompetence on your part.

When I first read that sentence, I thought the two parts of it were stating two different and independent reasons. So, I was responding to two different parts of the sentence separately. I admit that was a misreading on my part. Not sure about "general" incompetence, though.

Thank you.
