Well wouldn't that be the case for g*d as well? He makes the rules, because he's the big omnipotent guy, right? Do religious texts typically make exhaustive philosophical arguments for moral pre/proscriptions or to they tend to stick to divine command (i.e. do this or burn in hell)? Honestly, your obliviousness is hilarious.

The only people who even bother to make detailed moral arguments are those philosophers who aren't content to leave their moral frameworks up to the whimsy of the 'divine' (whether they believe in g*d or not).

The obvious argument against rampant murder and crime is that it's maladaptive at some point... When you're just warring small tribes then it might be advantageous to do it to the other guys but not your own tribe, and when we graduate to civilizations it would destroy social trust. What's your argument against it? Because g*d said so? Ok, brainlet.
