It's pragmatic to feed your body with healthy, "pure" things, and to do wholesome activities. This doesn't seem to have much to do with morality, but rather managing your health. I find the concepts of purity and sanctity to be dogmatic; labels which are put on certain things in order to remove them from criticism or discussion. Maybe there's more going on here than I'm understanding.

The way that I've had it explained is, supposing you're eating some pudding.  It's good clean food, right.  But suppose you drop some on your shirt.  Then it's no longer food, it's made your shirt dirty.   Same pudding, just a different viewpoint.


Context dependence, perfect for a flippyfloppist like mhBrewer.  *holds back a snarky laugh*

The take away for me is a win for subjectivism in morality.  No one builds their moral boat from scratch and we're all already out to sea by the time you take that introductory Ethics class and hatch that grand theme.  Morality is definitely one of the things that will make you question free will.  Free to run the programming that's already running?  Sure, we're at least that free.  To me morality is more a matter of discovery than a shopping trip or construction process.
