Not really you are confusing what is objective and what is subjective.
I think it is morally wrong to condemn homosexuality, that is subjective opinion. If morals were objective everyone would think it immoral to condemn homosexuals, but they don't do they!

Quote:This bit isn't true at all.  Moral disagreement exists.  Moral disagreement would still exist if morality were objective.

No they wouldn't.

Quote:  Those moral disagreements would be better informed disagreements than any "just-so" disagreements.  

What you are referring to, is what would be the case if morality was completely uniform.

If morality was objective it would be completely uniform.
It isn't hence subjective.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
