My views on objective morality

[robvalue]

It comes down to definitions again. If we define morality so that animals can't possibly be capable of it, then they are not.

Honestly, I don't think it's well-defined. I feel it needs careful definition for any given discussion. Almost all the disagreement I see about it relates to what it actually means in the first place. "Everyone knows what it means" is not useful. I am always suspicious of people who state how obvious something is but won't state what it actually is; they'd rather argue for an hour over how obvious it is than spend 5 seconds just saying what it is.
