That is my point... however we can't really move forward as long as it is maintained, this is just a matter of opinion, or societal approval. We'll just end up back where we started, with them saying that such is subjective and dependent on the person.
Well, much of it -is- a matter of opinion, or societal approval.
You and I have no problem moving forward, though. We've agreed that the notion of an objective morality is a sensible concept.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
