Does God have a different set of morals unrecognizable to humans? But if he wrote morality on our hearts, shouldn't we recognize his acts as moral?
I find it to be a profoundly evil and immoral act for God to kill babies and order that they be killed and if we replace god in this scenario with a random dictator, not one single Christian would disagree with me.
So if as Christians tend to claim, morality comes from god and he wrote his morality on our hearts...why do many of his actions in the Bible seem so instinctively immoral?
@Pikachu You mentioned that morality comes from God. Morals are subjective. What you call moral, someone may not. I contend that God is not moral, but holy.
I haven't read the bible cover to cover but i do know it says god created man in his own image ,so doesn't that make god responsible for the sins of man?
@TheRascallyOne But if he made us like him we wouldn't make wrong choices. God made us good bad or otherwise but not in his image unless god is good bad or otherwise.
I agree that we should all try to be the best people we can be. But do you have a more direct answer to the question? Because that was more of a little preach and some advice.
So you want to fall back on " Ain't dat lord great! For the bible tells me so!"
I want you to use your brain and the morality you believe that god gave to you to assess whether the actions and orders of god as described in that same bible you want to meditate on can be considered morally sound.
lol does it sound like the search is going well, bud? 🤣
What a polite way to avoid engaging thoughtfully. I don't respect that.
No one forces you to enter my threads. If you find yourself unwilling or incompetent to engage the subject matter then please don't feel it necessary to comment.
