Why can people, even religious people, not grasp the simple truth of Divine Command Theory? It's so obviously the only logical way of conceiving God anyway. Moreover, it's too convenient that what is really moral according to God just happens to be exactly what's 'moral' today. Divine Command Theory makes utterly pointless any kind of apologetics concerning moral matters. "God said to do x/not to do x; get over it." That's all you need. If we skip subjective discussions about morals, one can then focus a religious discussion completely on logical/objective issues, i.e. alleged contradictions in scripture, historical details, etc. Presuming Divine Command Theory is really the only way to have productive discussions about religion. It gets rid of so many problems, especially when dealing with more controversial religions like Islam. Does it really matter if Islam is violent and ISIS, al-Qaeda, etc. represent true Islam? If Islam is true, and their interpretation of it is true, then what they're doing is right, and you just need to get over it.

What is some good /lit/erature on getting your life together before it's too late? I recently started college, and even after therapy, I'm still a socially retarded nervous wreck with no marketable life skills and no experience of any kind. The only joy I get at this point is from reading and anime. I expected college to be better than high school like everyone said, but so far it's just as bad, and obviously I haven't made any friends and I don't expect to. What do I do, /lit/? Seriously considering just killing myself when I graduate because I'm too much of a pussy to enter the real world.
Please don't recommend bullshit pop self-help books.
