The only thing you can say is that in your opinion inconsistency is bad, but that's just like, your opinion, man.
No, I'm making the claim that an objectively moral system cannot be inconsistent. If it can be shown that the Christian moral system is inconsistent then it cannot be objective.
There are more ways to critique objectively moral systems than appealing to the subjective.

It's quite rational to believe that if this is all God's creation, that God has the authority to do what he wants with it. I don't, because it's not my creation, but God does.
Why is that "quite rational"? Also I noticed your example included a truck, why didn't you include your child? I wasn't talking about inanimate objects...

You're confusing objective with absolute. If there's a moral authority, then that moral authority can dictate that A is moral in this situation, but not in this other situation. Or that same authority could say that A is moral today and immoral tomorrow.

You don't think a creator has authority over what he creates? Who does, then?
I didn't use a child as an example because I don't own the child's life the same way I own the truck. If there's a creator of the universe then everything in that universe is a truck.
