Doing what your Creator asks of you may be better than what your sergeant asks of you.
Mostly because it's a rarer occurrence by far.
You don't get the point of God, Ghost. The people who kill and rape children will do so whether or not they believe the big bang theory.
"In the name of God, I do evil" is akin to "In the name of Peace, I massacre innocents".
People will say that, doesn't make God evil or Peace a massacre.

but it underlines the fallacy of using theology as a basis for moral certitude.

Abraham was ready to kill his son at God's request but was prevented from doing so.

Honestly, if i felt that God was telling me to do such an act, I would strongly doubt my sanity and would question deeply if this could possibly be from God.

The nature of God, revealed in the Bible and especially through Jesus, is not one that would ask such abhorrent things.

What has this got to do with any theory in science? What you're doing is deflecting from the question.
No. I claim no such link. Your question was would I kill if G. told me to, the answer is wtf dude G. doesn't tell me anything:

Except it's not an 'evil' action in their eyes. There is no universal 'evil' because 'evil' is a subjective view.
No, evil is objective, and perception is subjective. People claim to have the science of good and evil, and most often in their heart of hearts when they're raping the gutted corpses of orphans for profit they know they're being evil even if they wouldn't admit to feeling that feeling

This is absolute correct.
Therefore when stating what people who do think and believe, maybe leave room for doubt?
You and me rarely agree on anything but this time I agree with you.
If someone put a gun to my child's head and demanded me to deny God or the child dies.... I would not answer and I would make several attempts to convince the man that he has a problem with me and not my child and I would continue to beg to release my child until I changed his mind (of course if the chance comes where I can disarm the person I will) and if the man shot my child I would attack him and one of us going to die.
