If morality comes from a god, do different gods define different moralities?

@robperlic1071 This is why we don’t accept the Bible as an accurate history of anything in particular.

@casyatbat If right and wrong is subjective, then I could say you were wrong and you couldn’t prove otherwise.

@casyatbat But your saying I am correct doesn’t mean anything. It can only mean something if you are wrong.

@casyatbat But that is only what you believe. Without objectivity, you cannot prove it is true.

@casyatbat But where do those “premises” come from? How does objective morality arise from subjective religion?

@casyatbat Well, that’s one way to duck the question ...

Back in Greek and Roman times, their different variants on (polytheistic) religion could overlap without conflict, because they were careful not to claim that one particular god was the true god, and all other gods were false. Unfortunately, this principle has nowadays become an indivisible part of monotheistic religions in particular. If we are to have religious tolerance, then it has to go.
