Upon reading the Bible or most other scriptures, many humans are far more qualified to develop moral standards.
If you assume a God with the attrributes of the biblical God exists. It is absolutely impossible for humans to develop a moral code that would even come fractionally close to the one that God produced. You can deny God but you can't assume God and then rule out the implications. He knows all there is to know about everything, we know a vanishingly small amount about anything. Who is more qualified?
Strawman. Most of the world, especially those who were occupied by the Nazis did not agree with their principles of gassing and burning humans. Duh.
I did not create an abstract concept. I gave you a historical fact (your straw man is a strawman) the German leaders (men more qualified than you to know) declared that their actions were consistent with the values of their government. Since Hitler ordered much of it then it's easy to see what they were saying. The point was, you operating from your framework could not have justified stopping them unless you appealed to that which you are argueing against.
Utter nonsense. Sin is disobedience to gods while people are in jail for breaking laws initiated by a judicial system.
Since laws are moral codes, and many are derived from a Christian foundation your reply is false.
That is laughable, Christianity may also be a made up religion and there isn't a shred of evidence to refute that.
You don't read much do you. Just on the textual integrity alone nothing else in the same ballpark. I will agree that I don't know but there are many philisophical, historical, and existential ways to judge which religion is the most more relable when compared with the others. You smug dismissivness betrays a obvious lack of knowledge concerning comparative religion.
Who said it was accountable?
Here is what you said "Like yourself, the Aztecs were trying not to sin based on their gods laws. That's why a gods laws and sinning are irrelevant in reality". It sure sounds like you are trying to establish a guilt by association point. It sounds like you are saying because the Aztecs did something bad because of their made up God then I should not use my God as justification for anything.
Faith based gobbledegook. Irrelevant.
This is philisophical. If the biblical God exists then by the nature of his characteristics it is philisophically consistent that his objective values would supercede your subjective values. You can deny God but not evaluate God seperate from his nature and it's implications.
How is yours or your gods standards more valid? See how that works?
I see how your insuffecient reasoning skills work. That was silly. If the biblical God exists, and he is described as the greatest possible being by the bible then it follows that every other being is subordinate. Once again: You can deny God but not evaluate God seperate from his nature and it's implications.
Then, you have no argument. YOU yourself just invalidated it.
My goodness, sometimes I wonder why I bother. That whole statement was set in the context of the absence of God. It is actually an unavoidable indictment of your position. It actually had no application to mine, I thought that was obvious.
Yes, they can and they do.
No they can't. Are you just saying anything you can think of. Your moral framework being absent an objective standard cannot even establish or justify a worth of human life. It is impotent. Why don't you try some intellectual gymnastics and prove me and even many atheistic philosophers wrong on this point.
And, that ultimate standard would be? (wait for it...)
The fact that your framework cannot possibly produce what is needed was the point.
Notice you said, "If"? Notice that your statement can apply to any god?
I unlike most biblical critics am understanding that you do not share my faith and I try to allow for that in my wording. I am not always successful but I like to pretend you have a valid position for your sake and to try to keep you critics civil in the discussion.
Perhaps, but your statement was definitely laughable.
Only if you smuggly assume you know what it is you cannot possibly know.
