I (32m) started seeing prostitutes when I was 20 and have done it on and off up to my current age. I find the lack of sexual and emotional connection lures me into to seeing them even when I say I’m going to stop. Whenever I am doing decent financially I end up going back to seeing them. I try to be a spiritual person and read the bible and not lust over women but it can be a struggle and mental battle. Does anyone else have this same bad habit?

    No it’s not? I’m arguing that morality must be something separate from God. If the only thing that makes something morally right is that God wills it, then if God ever changes what they will, what is morally right will change.

      But God cannot change as God is already perfect

      The Euthyphro dilemma is moreso about polytheistic religions. It doesn’t work with nor was it written about Monotheism.

        I didn’t say if God changed though, I said if God changed what they willed. From some quick Googling (I haven’t actually read the bible), this seems to happen in the bible (Jeremiah 26:13). God can change their actions without changing themself.

        2 millennia of Christian philosophy would disagree with you there.

          Jeremiah 26:13 ESV

          Now therefore mend your ways and your deeds, and obey the voice of the Lord your God, and the Lord will relent of the disaster that he has pronounced against you.

          God’s will isn’t changing here
