Thankyou Rapunzel.

I appreciate your post about looking at how we regard others intentions (because we never know the full story) and also about looking at how we post (because the aim of posting is to communicate rather than to be misunderstood). I really appreciate your arriving at (what I take to be) a balanced view of the situation.

I appreciate what you said about your conception of God too. I guess I agree with you in the sense that IF God exists then that would be a feature of God. That he would know all the truths and identify all the goods (God is all-knowing).

My conception of God is that (IF he exists) then he is the greatest POSSIBLE being. Hence God can't be expected to do things that are contradictory (e.g., make a rock so big that he can't move it) but that this needent be seen as a limitation on God. Rather... It indicates that we need to limit our conception of God (since we can conceive of the impossible).

Shows us something of the limits of thought.

If one maintains that God can do ANYTHING (including the logically impossible) then ones conception of god is contradictory (hence it is not possible for him to exist). We don't want to make God's inexistence a matter of definition, however (this shows us our conception has gone wrong).

If this is right... Then it means we can always ask:

WHY does God regard judging to be acceptable?
or...
WHY does God regard judging to be unacceptable?

And cite reasons for that...

I identify with being a secular humanist at times. I also believe that there are objective facts / truths hence secular humanism doesn't entail relativism. Secular humanists still have to consider whether judging is acceptable or not (and under what circumstances / what kinds of judgements). The answer to the question:

WHY does God regard judging to be un/acceptable?

can be given an answer for the theist

and

WHY is judging un/acceptable?

can be given the same answer for the secular humanist.
