Meh, I could casually call my morality objective. It's objective in every sense that matters to me or to the subject, but if it falls below someone else's criteria for objective (alot of people use the word to mean uniformly and absolutely true with no exceptions and no room to argue) then it doesn't matter to me. I'll call it subjective...and it doesn't change a thing about how I approach the issue. I still think that there are moral facts of the matter, even if I don't know all of them, and even if I've confused something else -for- one of them.
That's actually a realization I came to here at AF, over many long disagreements with smart posters, btw. This place does work!

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
