[Avodah] Must we agree with the Torah?

I gathered through the discussion, that some contributors were suggesting
that the notion of Ma Hu, Af Atta; applies also to those things He
prohibits us from doing. Thus, HKBH forbade us from eating X or doing Y,
and it is accordingly good to train ourselves to be appalled at the thought
of eating X or doing Y.

I don't think this correct. Ma Hu, Af Atta, is illustrated exclusively by
those Middos that are of interpersonal values. Is there any source in
Tanach, Gemara or Medrash that supports anything beyond interpersonal
values within the framework of Ma Hu Af Atta?
