Ah ok. So you are not quite in the camp of moral belief that I am targeting here. Mainly trying to hear from people with views that morality is someone mind-independently real
Just curious though, have you heard of Hume's projectivist view of moral beliefs, where we have an affective reaction to something and then in a sense project our feelings on the cause of them so that that thing itself becomes seen as e.g. bad, awful, horrible. From there we reify the properties that we project so that they become thought of as mind-independent properties of the universe.
I might be butchering that, but is an interesting concept
I'll have to contemplate this on the tree of woe and get back to you, maybe. I'm not all that keen on philosophy.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
