I do love a good show
But no, I genuinely believe the point I made with Rayaan. I believe there is a line for all humans. No one, from any time period, could ever convince me that something like the rape, murder and dismemberment of an innocent 16 year old girl is morally "subjective" and is determinate to a given culture of whether it is right or wrong. In fact, if a culture does make allowances for those actions, than that entire culture is repugnant and worthy of the majority's condemnation.
Morality - yes, very subjective overall .... but NOT completely. Some things are just wrong.
Anybody besides Frodo and Sae find that view to be "extremist and antagonistic"? No? Cause that's the only point I was making.
