@above...when did you ever get the impression that I disagreed? I'm commenting on objective morality, not their gods divine commands.
Look, would you do me a favor and just explain to me what you think objective morality means to you? From what I've been reading there's not even a consensus on that. I know where I fall on the spectrum but I'm not sure where you do.
Yeah, I'd like to know too. In what sense do you say morality is or can be objective? Do you mean that there is a body of do's and don'ts which just should guide people's actions, regardless of what their individual values may be? Or do you mean that there just is a preponderance of agreement on certain general precepts which can be boiled down and logically elaborated upon to constitute OM?
