You know what they say about everyone having an opinion. Meanwhile here is fairly simple explanation of why what you are calling objective morality is really subjective.
Quote:Many attempts at establishing an objective morality try to argue from considerations of human well-being. OK, but who decided that human well-being is what is important? We did! This whole enterprise starts with a subjective leap. Yes, human well-being is what morality is all about but human well-being is all about human feelings and preferences, and is thus subjective.
