Morality versus afterlife
RE: Morality versus afterlife
Good point.

Also, there are an infinite number of possible versions of objective morality. It could be fixed in absolutely any way you like. So you could say objective moralities "exist" (but not in a literal sense as they are still abstract concepts).

The problem comes in choosing which one out of this massive pool to follow.

Everyone who has ever lived will probably have had their own unique choice, and their choice will also have changed throughout their life. So at any given point they may subscribe to a particular objective morality, but as they live their lives this may change and they may select new ones.

So how do we pick which one? Any finite, fixed source such as a holy book can never suffice because there will always be scenarios it either doesn't cover at all, or not in sufficient detail. At this point, you're forced to decide for yourself what path to choose.
