Is this the looping theory of logical discourse? There's nothing in that post now that wasn't there before...and there wasn't anything in it before that explained why or how god would or could be a moral authority.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

It's just like the example of Kant which you couldn't rebut. Only here you had asked of me why something wasn't (a smaller point of contention) and I responded with what so far I see as valid points. If you can't be bothered offering a counter argument there, then I shouldn't really waste time furthering the argument if it's going to fall on deaf ears.

Theres no responsibility to offer a counterargument to what has failed to have been proven true Fallen..  There just isn't, and I won't waste my time.  I don't march just because you say so, I don't entertain your every thought dropping just because you dropped it, and you don't have the sort of ability or authority required to make me do so......just like your god, lol.

Simply claiming its failure doesn't make it so. You'll have to address the points for that.

Like the point that you never poke of moral authority, but instead decided to babble about law, or how turds float on water because of the density set "by gawd"...or that you named dropped newton or decided that maybe if you said the word science it may look, idk....what???  I'm wondering what you think there might be to address in a rambling, incoherent, train of thought style post in the first place?

If you want to talk moral authority, do so. Don't do this, this is embarrassing to yourself and to the boards.

To be a Christian all you have to do is follow Christ.

It is said that God moves in mysterious ways. More specifically, God actually moves in mysterious circles: This is because Jesus was a Christian, he followed himself, and not many people knew this but he had one leg shorter than the other.

But Judaism is a false religion.

Jesus cannot front a false religion as the son of God.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
