What is 'objective' value?

[Mudhammam]

So, is there a way by which one might evaluate this image of the ideal self, to say whether it is actually (objectively) better or worse than any another image? Might not one's pleasant feelings which arise from accomplishing certain tasks be better, not just as a matter of their own judgement, but in principle, in the case that their goal is a career as a doctor who cares for the ill, versus the parallel progress and pleasure another acquires in becoming the most decorated commander of Boko Haram, say? Might I be mistaken about what I think is the best self that I want to strive towards?

Wow, Nestor's comment just earned 3 Kudos from the 3 forum Christians lol.

I am in an interesting place, philosophically, where I often find myself between atheists who reject anything that isn't known directly by perception, and religious believers who don't know how to place restrictions on their imagination.
