"The fact is that you believe they ARE ARBITRARY and therefore not a TRUE moral system"

Again I understand what you are saying. I just disagree with it and object to you telling me and others, what I believe, (or don't believe) when I have clearly told you otherwise. It's up to you to show why an ungrounded "arbitrary" moral system can or should be imposed on others and can function outside of yourself.

"You are incapable of explaining how murdering somebody for gathering sticks on the sabbath gives any credibility to those primitive ideas (allegedly coming from your God) as a moral code."

I assure you I am and will, once you allow me to hold my own position and stop deliberately misrepresenting it. As it is; I consider changing the nature of the discussion premature and to be nothing more than a diversionary tactic on your part. I am not willing to change horses in mid stream, thank you very much. I'm ready to move on if you are.
