Quoting Buckeye, ns. As your responded to Him.
"Murder" can be a matter of cultural expression. We'd consider human sacrifice murder; many Cultures saw it as the highest form of worship and subservience.
My argument posits the idea that if there is no Absolute Authority, upon which all (vast majority) can agree to submit to...then 'authority' becomes subjective. As we see such now in the polarized socio-political Culture. Recipe for strife. Throw in morality...and far worse than just run of the mill strife. Boundless and contempt/hate-based action.

I'm familiar with that argument. I've never found it convincing or especially relevant to my belief (or disbelief) in a deity.

Sure, and it's no coincidence that these practices have largely disappeared.
