Objective morality as a proper basic belief

Something that is undesirable doesnt make it wrong.

Congratulations, Henry!  You have gotten my view completely ass-backwards.

In the eyes of the rapist, rape is okay.

In my eyes, however, it is definitely wrong.  I actually consider rape to be a capital offense and believe that people have the right to defend themselves with egregious lethal force to stop an attempted rape.

What is morality good for, if not to make societies and cultures more stable?
