Morality is subjective and ever changing. You cannot however say that God is unchanging and his standards are unchanging. How do you know what they are and if he has any? Because the bible tells you so? Give me a break! That is merely your opinion (and a flawed one at that) based on some words you've read. Dont try to pass that crap off as the authoritative truth. IMHO God is Love and not bound by "morality"--a human construct which is nothing more than subjective ideas about how things are and how things should be based on what you believe about God and about life. Nothing more, nothing less.
Morals tend to spiral downward with each generation, huh? So I guess slavery, burning witches at the stake, sending women into the wilderness and to their death with a scarlet letter for sexual immorality, genocide of the american indian population because of their religion, the spanish inquisition etc. were examples of "high morals" of the good ole days, eh?
