It causes pain, it causes harm.
Quote:If we had no such emotions, then we would not have rules such as "don't kill your fellow man", "don't punch your fellow man", etc.
Emotions are subjective, not objective, as I explained, and neither of those is a moral absolute, even if one subjectively (as you did) accepted that causing pain (I would say unnecessarily) is immoral, since this would also be a subjective assertion.
