Lets use your form of argument. what is meant by protecting?
Doesn't matter. What is good? Has only one true answer via logic. you keep speaking as though mathematics is the basis of logic.
I have shown you that logically you cannot have two contradictory statements being true.
You haven't proven empirical/objective "good and bad exists". Asserting something as a fact, such as "There is only one truth" doesn't make that a fact, any more than asserting that there's only one god.
Objective
adjective: objective
1.
(of a person or their judgment) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.

Now before I begin I am going to start by defining faith, as the culture today has started to redefine faith as belief without proof.
faith
fāTH/
noun
noun: faith
1.
complete trust or confidence in someone or something
All morality is based on the feelings and/or opinions of the observers, the recipients and the doers of an event and the actions leading up to that event. One event, 3 proverbial perspectives.
If it exists, it shouldn't be too hard to find, as all of nature would resonate and be in harmony with this one empirical and objective moral standard and truth, from the bottom to the top.

I make no concession. So, I say it again, under your amended definition of murder, Hitler didn't commit murder. Do you agree with that?
You are already incorrect in your assumption or purposefully misleading. "Today's Culture" isn't Redefining the word faith. The fact is that they are using the word "Faith" with the definition including "without proof" because that is the correct definition especially when used in the context of Religious Faith
When talking about Theological ideas and Religious Concepts it is used purposefully to include "without proof" because one's "Faith" is of a personal nature and not something objective that others may also share collectively

Nope. As my moral experience isn't based of a word's definition, but the experience I have when witnessing or hearing of an act. Hitler was evil. Again pick any definition of murder you like my point about logic still stands.
