People think that God is meant for their desires so if He says this is wrong they don't accept and try to find fault with that -- what they really ask is "How can you refuse to fulfill my desires? What I am doing is right for me and so what's your problem?" It is anti devotional attitude really.
Actually the Lord is supremely independent and it won't take Him very long to turn the same argument on His side. And if He says so who can stop Him?
What is right and what is wrong? Ultimately what He desires is absolutely right and what He forbids is absolutely wrong. He can say that it's not wrong according to Him just like the atheists can argue and He can make it true and show the proof of the pudding in the eating. Then where will they go keep their faces?
So here we see the atheists vainly trying to establish that they are God and as long as they think themselves so, they can never accept anything the real Lord says.
Of course they will never find any fault in God if he were to agree with them so this hypocritical argument of finding faults with the Lord can never stand before a clean conscience.
So there is no fault in the Lord for having His preferences. When we feel we have the right to our conceptions of right and wrong, so can the Lord. And what He wants is Absolute Truth and is not merely a conception, but reality. And if we follow His desires that is the real highest morality for us.
Ultimately the impersonal mayavada conception is so deeply ingrained in the conditioned souls that anything related to the personality of Godhead seems like a fault and basic truths of devotional service like fulfilling the Lord's desires is too hard to swallow.
