commanding something is telling it to do something, a moral is advice. and if we dont take his advice, he punishes us.

doesnt sound to freindly.

Morals are standards (rules/laws) And God doesn't punish people for not following His morals.

morals are not standars. rules and regulations are standars. dont just give things definition.

accepted standards

shore, but standards are only for the people that make them. you can not create a standar for someone else.

god is telling us what we should be with out knowing us. as you said, he chooses to be ignorant, and as such is not all-knowing.

God made man and also became man in the form of Jesus. He knows us better than we know ourselves.

God has the ability to know all things which is superior to simply knowing everything.

i have the ability to shoot someone with a gun in the face. that doesnt mean i know what its like. i assume you have had some sort of sexuall contact with someone before, yes, do you know everything about it. but virgins understand how they would like it best.

But you have choosen not to know that. If you did shoot someone in the face you would be choosing to know what it was like.

exactly, as such, i am ignorant of the feeling. god cheated when he became jesus. he knew he was god. he did not live as a human, he lived as a god. that is hardly enough to understand. furthermore, he chose not to know. he chose to not be all-knowing.

But He was limited. Hanging on a cross killed him.

Just a semantic point here, but you can't choose to ignore something and not know it and be called "All Knowing." It kind of defeats the purpose of the phrase.

No problem. Which is better a car that can go very fast or a car the must always go very fast?

Jesus was God but He was also human. He was subject to things like hunger and thirst. A stone to the head could have killed him prior to crucifixion it only didn't because He took off when He was in danger those times.
