The same God that personally murders babies certainly approves His good work done by His faithful minions.Happy is the one who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks."--Psalm 137:9
The Psalmist is in exile and had probably witnessed the atrocities committed against his people, babies included. In the revenge-style that was common at the time, he wishes the same upon his enemy. Nowhere does it say that God approves of the Psalmist’s request or that he fulfilled it. Just because it is recorded that the Psalmist wrote about this "wish" or curse, doesn’t mean it was approved by God.

Then who decides?
(Please be as specific as possible)
I already said. Individual conscience. People should not be relying on authority to tell them what is right or what is wrong.
So... the psychopath who has no conscience, and the sociopath who has little conscience, are both free to simply follow their carnal desires?
Pass!
For society to function, we need some semblance of rules and laws. I prefer dynamic Civil Laws that can be changed and updated as necessary.
Christianity is the religion of following a book of fables and an invisible god who'll burn you for all eternity if you don't follow said book of fiction.
Christianity is also the religion of the god who gives believers cancer and a horrible painful death.Christianity is the religion of following a book of fables and an invisible god who'll burn you for all eternity if you don't follow said book of fiction.
Wrong. Christianity is the religion of turning away from wrong-doing, discerning the will of God and following it.
Everything else is either embroidery or people jumping to wrong conclusions.
Look how Job was spun...The moral of the story is, God loves you, but will put you through Hell to allow you to prove how much you love God..Christianity is also the religion of the god who gives believers cancer and a horrible painful death.Christianity is the religion of following a book of fables and an invisible god who'll burn you for all eternity if you don't follow said book of fiction.

Like I said, no book, no god.Christianity is finding god through a book. No book, no god. Can't read? Too bad.
Not true. You can also HEAR the word of God.
... and there is always Braille also....
God is a God of miracles; there is always a way.......
So god gives us cancer, then we get the blame.

That is of our own doing.
If we had obeyed Him from day one, we would not have introduced sin and everything that that comes along with it.....

This is funny. You want abortions and gay marriage available so that people are free to simply follow their carnal desires, but you draw the line at psychopaths and sociopaths being able to follow their carnal desires?
For society to function, we need some semblance of rules and laws. I prefer dynamic Civil Laws that can be changed and updated as necessary.
I understand perfectly. You think the semblance of rules religions adhere to are too restricting. So when government begins pandering in order to get votes and stay and power, to show their dominance over religious authorities, you gleefully accept and follow along. Except...you're a bit bigoted when it comes to the sociopath and psychopath. Are you aware there are many who have this affliction, but are still able to function in society?
This is all beside my original point anyway. My point is that matters of conscience should be presided over by the individual, not government. There is a wide swath where government needs to step back and say, "Government neither approves nor disapproves--this is outside government jurisdiction. Look to your conscience for approval/disapproval."
This wide swath doesn't include crime as a matter of personal conscience--i.e. robbery, rape, murder. The governing authorities do have a responsibility to keep order in the greater society.

This is what I think.
Either don't believe in God; or
Believe in God and that he's perfect.
There is no other choice

Believe in the possibility of God, knowing full well that the only thing that can be known of God is that everything of God is unknowable.
