He was judged by other men. His followers were hanged by other men because they broke the international laws that other men decided were right. Your position is that of the Taliban, rules are what we say God decreed. The only difference is that you and the Taliban differ on which God is doing the decreeing.
Wrong again. Humans are a flawed creation, Nd I do not trust them to do the right thing.
Hanged after killing 6 million people
The is an important point. I dont trust men to do the right thing even though they sometimes do the right thing, how often are we surprised when they actually do.

Then I say again, what is your alternative? However flawed, humans are what we have. All we can do is put safeguards in place that stops a rogue person or small group from hijacking the popular agenda.
Based on what rationale? If you have your opinion and I have mine and they are all equal then how do you determine who the "rogue person" is? Maybe it's you?
My alternative is God. Anything from a human base standpoint will fail in one way or another

Who said that our opinions are equal? You are clearly talking through your backside.
Your alternative is YOUR God, whose standpoint is interpreted by you and people like you. In other words, just another bunch of untrustworthy humans. The only difference is that you have no confidence in the good sense or popularity of the agenda you propose, so you claim divine provenance for it. Not very convincing, I'm afraid. Let's stick to humans who are at least honest about where their ideas come from.
We've been through the equal opinion discussion but you don't seem to be able to comprehend it.
No let's not stick to humans as they have failed at every turn. The last thing any person needs is Brandon or piglosi deciding what's moral. God help us

Too bad they weren't still in the womb, so you could have saved yourself the anguish.
God as defined by you? A God that just happens to agree with you on just about everything? And you say we should follow this God of yours?
And your evidence god does not exist?
Yes certain humans are completely unable to refer to political opponents by their actual names, preferring nasty pejoratives. And then somehow they expect polite responses.

There's no need to be so hateful.
Never said that.
My point is that the God created by some people to validate their hatreds and prejudices does not exist.
So god exists?
Prove anyone created any god.

Live up to your own standard.
No I don't expect polite responses from you I get what I always expect from you, intellectually lazy tired old talking points. You NEVER look at your own behavior and think you can say and do whatever you like and people will just take it. If you haven't noticed by now you never will, I won't sit back and take the leftist garbage. I will heap it right back on you. So if you want something different try something different. Do look at me looks t you. You don't control what I do you only control what you do.
