This is a moral judgement made by you, not God. God has made his law well known, "Thou Shall Not Murder". I happen to agree with your statement and I most definitely agree with God. But that doesn't chnage the FACT that this power resides at the state level.
Sorry, incorrect. Elected officials don't decide what is moral. That is reserved for God.
Patently false. God is source of absolute truth. But men legislate morality. It is what legislators do. All law has a moral component and men and women are elected to legislate same. Not all men and women believ in God. Those officials are responsible to their citizenry and held responsible at the polling booth. Justice Kennedy and the Mousketeers answer to nobody which is why they do what they want when they want.
I stated it as an opinion.
But that doesn't chnage the FACT that this power resides at the state level.
Incorrect. The SCOTUS has the legitimate power to determine when a punishment is cruel and unusual.
But men legislate morality. It is what legislators do.
Some things they legislate concern morality, other things do not. In any case, they don't define morality, they make laws.
All law has a moral component and men and women are elected to legislate same.
Incorrect. But I will admit they make lots of immoral laws.
Not all men and women believ in God.
Correct.
Those officials are responsible to their citizenry and held responsible at the polling booth.
Which of course has nothing whatsoever to do with deciding what is moral.
If you like the idea that politicians define morality, you will love it when Hillary is back in charge.
Hitler was elected, he didn't get to define morality.
