Default Re: A problem with some religous views Part 2.

It is possible that something regarding the moral correctness of the religous view is hidden. Where if you knew what God knows you would no longer feel repugnant. This alows for your moral sense to be intact, god to be good, and the religous view to be correct.

I concur. And given that you are not being deceived by your feelings, but instead you are correctly reacting to your feelings which just happen to be based on incomplete information, then any conclusion based on your premise is going to be shaky.

If you want to go down this path then stick it into the other thread please. However if my moral sense is leading me to believe something that is untrue then it misleads me.

Doesn't matter is some other knowledge could change that.

If I had that knowledge then the moral repugnance would disappear and the premise would no longer be true. The claim still remains valid.

Anyway, please stick it in the other thread if you want to continue.

Then you better change your conjecture, because you are stating that your moral feelings are deceiving you, not that they are operating just fine but lacking all the necessary information. If I see a man strike a woman, my moral feelings may tell me this is repugnant, but if the woman just tried to stab the man and I didn't see that, then it's not the fault of my moral feelings being deceptive or defective. I predict that ignoring this flaw now will lead to your coming conclusion to be already open to question.
