I need to leave this thread before my lack of charity gets any bigger. Apologies for any hurt feelings…I have very strong opinions about this topic.
 
Hey coptic,

I have be recovering from surgery the past week. I was so bored out of my mind until somehow I came across this website. Unfortunately it is back to work with me. It has been such fun toying with you. You have had me laughing my *** off. Thank you so much for the entertainment. You crack me up. It has been so much fun having you run from here and there. I would just cut and paste stuff off the internet and I can just imagine you taking all that time reading a bunch of ****. I feel kind of bad jerking you around, but I couldn’t resist. You just made it too easy. I wish I could take a couple of more days off to play around with you, but its back to the real world.
 
I don’t see the distinction between what God says and ultimate moral truth, because God is Truth. God is also Morality, and Love, Justice, Peace, Strength, Life, etc… In my mind, that doesn’t limit Him because ultimately they’re all the same thing. They’re all God. I’m not saying that God is not a person (3 Persons actually) or that He’s just a collection of virtues. He’s the embodiment of those virtues in personal form. So our words are limited, and our concept of true morality may be limited, but God’s reality as embodiment of true morality is unlimited.

So when God says “x is moral, y is immoral”…it’s just a reflection of His nature. He never sat down and decided which things would be moral or immoral, IOW.
True, true, and true but again, it is also true that there are several arguments that prove that some x is morally bad. Again, we know this from my murder example. I’m looking not for the faith-based reasoning but the essential reason on this question.

I’m pretty sure that another person answered correctly when that poster talked about the dangers that lots of innocent people might be killed, but let me see the whole syllogism just to double check.
