Game Theory & Morality & PoE

One way to get good at a given game is to emulate those who are more experienced and have more knowledge of playing the game. The elite players are implementing the correct choices for each given situation and as long as you can mirror their moves, you can win without knowing why it is correct. Take the game of Chess for example, the computer, Deep Blue, that beat Kasparov only relied on the data of thousands of previous games between grandmasters. Deep Blue did not know why particular moves fulfilled the objective of winning, only that they did. In choosing the moves that tend to fulfill the objective among the players with extremely high knowledge of the game, Deep Blue was able to consistently choose the correct decision. So, given that we have enough background knowledge of an elite player's decisions in particular situations, we can determine what the correct decision is and can emulate being knowledgeable about the game without knowing the reasons behind what makes the decision correct.

Then we come to the traditional characteristics of god: omnipotence, benevolence, and omniscience. From the properties omniscience and benevolence, we know that he will always be making the morally perfect action in every situation because we know from his omniscience that he know the morally perfect action and from his omnipotence, he will be able to actualize that action.

What can we conclude from his decisions? In general, he is hidden, never interferes in affairs. According to specific traditions, he may decide that vicarious sacrifice redeems immoral behavior, or that one should interfere only when society is at the precipice of disaster. These decisions must reflect what what is ultimately moral for moral agents to do for the above reasons, however, I think that one would be hesitant to concede that these represent moral values.

Lets see how these moral values exemplified by god conflict with what we know about morality. Taking the non-intervening notion of god as the example, if it is ever moral to interfere with anyone else, then god does not exist. As a corollary, if you believe in such a god, then you must also think that it is immoral to intervene with someone who commits evil. In the essence of Christopher Hitchens, I contend that this is a very sinister idea that poisons everything.
