Two people having 2 different opinions about something doesn't mean there isn't a correct answer. A person can think rape is a good thing. But he is wrong, it isnt. Thats what i mean by morality being objective.

JFC, don't bring rape into this, unless your willing to concede that all rapists are psychopaths. (be careful here)

So do you get to say what is correct for them? Nope, you only get to say what is correct for you. Society as a whole gets to say what is correct for them (with in limits). It's called laws.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
