How does it not make sense?
Morality is not a decision made by God it is based on how His nature
so it can not be arbitrary because it is His natural attributes that morality is based on
According to what religion
Christianity
So you mean that you get your morals from the Bible
We get our morals from God and that morality is communicated through the bible
the morality exists with or without the bible
But in general you get them from the Bible
no
We get them from God
who communicated them through the bible
You read it in the Bible and assume it is true so you get them from the Bible
I don't assume it is
I have a lot of reasons to believe it is
The Bible is subjective because the morals communicated through the Bible change constantly and contradict in the Bible
For example the "thou shalt not kill"
That isn't true
That refers to unjust killing
Where in the Bible itself it is okay to kill non believers or disobedient children
Heretics improperly practicing Christianity does not mean God contradicts Himself
According to the Bible disobedient children are guilty
And so they were
So they get killed
And it is okay according to the Bible
Only if they laid hands on their parents iirc
Whatever they did it is still a contradiction to the thou shalt not kill moral
but it isn't
God has never condemned the killing of an innocent person
Thou shalt not kill is referring to murder
Genesis 9:6 King James Version (KJV)
6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
**Genesis 9:6 - King James Version (KJV)**
```Dust
<6> Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man. ```
The punishment for shedding the blood of a man is to shed their own blood
death penalty for murderers
an eye for an eye
God has never implied that people who are guilty should not be executed
what about it?
Are you talking about where the rape victim can be punished for not screaming?
No
