No - it's perfectly rational. A moral framework is subjective to the person conceiving it. God's moral frame work no more has "authority" over me than yours does, or the moral framework of any other sentient person. You have no means for showing that it does, even if this god DID exist. If I believe "homosexuality is morally neutral, then homosexuality is morally neutral in my moral framework. It may be a moral ill in god's moral framework, but that has no impact on mine. It means god and I disagree, just as you and I disagree. There is no "binding" there in the same way that there is for the laws of logic or mathematics. The laws of logic are not things I (or god) can refute. An argument bad argument will still be a bad argument, even if I think it is a good one. 2 + 2 will still equal 4 even if I say it equals 5. If god and I disagree on morality, the best you can say is "god disagrees with you." So? You also disagree with me.
And you still have not shown this being actually exists - you basically you are projecting your own religiously-based moral framework on a deity you cannot show to exist to lend them authority. Sorry, Seer...I don't buy it. You'll have to do better than "because god says so."
Seer...a single being cannot be "fully human" and "fully god" simultaneously. The two definitions contain explicit contradictions (mortal/immortal; limited/omniscience; limited/all-powerful; created/creator, etc.). You can rationalize to the ends of the earth, but a thing cannot be two opposing things: that is fundamental to logic (except, of course when it comes to Christian theology). The same is true for a triune monotheism - it's an oxymoron. Christianity is riddled with such oxymorons that the faithful parrot and the theologians have expended enormous volumes of ink to have "make sense." They simply don't - unless you drink the Koolaid (and yes, I use that expression selectively).
