My point is raping children is objectively wrong plain and simple. If it is subjectively wrong then there must be a justification for how it can be a subjectively moral act, what is that explanation? There is no explanation to justify that evil, then how can it be subjectively wrong/right act, it's a objectively evil act period


We all share lots of DNA.  Hell, we're the same species.  We've evolved to live cooperatively and to have (nearly universally) dispositions which support that life style.  That is what accounts for our common judgement.  It would be odd if what we valued had made no difference in our evolution, especially given our need to work cooperatively.  For an orangutan it would matter much less.

Yes, your parents disrespected you by having sex and then not having aborted you. What an odd thing to say...


Well at least they had the sex when I wasn't looking.    Blush
