Mr_Anony:

I understand your analogy, I can also use the same analogy to describe God. But when I asked you for a standard for judging morality, I wanted you to point at something specific by which we can explain morality for all mankind, I wasn't asking for an analogy.

and how does that relate to God in the defined context?

Mr_Anony:

I was of the impression that we were talking about human morality in general and not the isolated case of parents and children. Please don't pass off a metaphor as reality. Besides, even in that special case of child and parent, God is a much better judge.

I am making an analogy and to the the child the 'Parent' is a God-figure and that is what he believes and builds his morals on...

A Judge merely interprets and enforces the Rules not create them.

we are referring to a judge that creates and enforces law

Ok now likes see how a parent can be a judge

Mr_Anony:
Fair enough, let's carry on then. But note while we continue, that you are yet to provide a good judge that fits the criteria we set.

A Parent Scolding a Child for Stealing fits the criteria.....

I'll quote myself from another thread. This is what I said:

".........I will go on to say that for anything to be a true standard for morality
1. It must be all-powerful or at least more powerful than the child i.e. must be powerful enough to punish evil and reward good.

2. It must be omniscient i.e. must be able to properly know and understand everything and every motive

Yes the parent has omni-knowledge on the stealing subject and has all set-knowledge to admonish the child with...

3. It must be all-seeing i.e. must be able to see a case from every possible angle. No evidence should escape it.

The parent has the ability to see all through the child's actions as regards to the theft...and miss no evidence.

6. It must not waver and must not change with the wind i.e. what was once evil will not suddenly become good and vice versa(note this is different from it's permissiveness)

Yes, there are strict parents who never waver from their stands due to their state of mind....so they possess unclouded judgement

Hereby we can see that to a young child, his parents can be a 'God-Source' of Morality

Mr_Anony:
I take difference to the word "physically". I'll assume you don't mean it in a strict sense (I say this so that the debate doesn't drift towards "Can you prove God physically?" )
Otherwise, I agree

No one is going there....i'm still trying to show that source is not equal to a supernatural being...
Religion / Re: Is Morality Possible Without An Authoritative Source? by mkmyers45(m): 2:37pm On Jul 16, 2012
Mr_Anony:
Now I smell a trick question waiting on the wings.

I have already answered your question I affirm that God is the source of morality. To clarify and avoid strawmen, I will say this again: The nature/essence of God is goodness. It is from the standard of God's goodness that we can identify what is good and what is not good (evil).
And by the nature of God, I refer to God as portrayed by the bible and through the life of Christ.

I have already agreed, I don't know what else you want from me.

Ok, From the standard of a 'Judge' we can deduce goodness and evil right? Now, the nature of this judge is by his life portrayal as we can physically see...agree?

God=Immorality+Morality (that is more like it than not) so how do we flip this coin. and please do not bring Satan into this because God existed before him

I Agree, small adjustment for clarity: God's nature is the basis of morality

I insist God = source of morality Agree or not?

So I ask you to please define this "your own God" and tell me exactly how well he/she/it satisfies the criteria we have laid out

Let us make some points clear: God = Source of Morality? Agree or Not?

Lol, all the instances you gave, none of them fits the bill as well as (your)God.
