Believing it is not proving it

You seem to be confusing individual morality with "corporate" morality.Our individual sense of right and wrong is no more "meaningful" than our colour preference. The only thing that gives morality meaning is how we relate to other members of society.At the individual level, morality is subjective. At the social/corporate level, those individual "subjectivities" add up to something practical - but still not objective. "Meaning" is a practical matter, not a logical one.

Sin is a meaningless concept - except in practical terms.Jesus reduced the commandments to "Love God and love thy neighbour as thyself". Those are practical commandments, designed to help us get along with each other."Sin" is the impractical - what sets us against each other. Sin is what a particular person does to another particular person at a particular time. It makes no sense to talk about "objective morality". Similarly, it makes no sense to impose "morals" on God.Morals are based on social interactions - how we treat each other. Thus, morals vary from society to society and from situation to situation. They are subjective.God is not a "social animal". Therefore, for God "morality" is undefined.This message has been edited by Ringo, 2006-04-03 12:58 PMThis message has been edited by Ringo, 2006-04-03 12:58 PM
