How do you explain that some people will tell you the sum of 1 and 1 is 4? This is just academic, though. I don't think you or I would point to killing and eating other animals as our best behavior? It's a thing we do, yes, but not the best, or kindest, or most well considered thing we do.....right?
-and again, moral agreement is a thing - we do not actually disagree on moral principles as much as our moral practice might suggest. If moral agreement is the thing that would certify moral objectivity we have it as a matter of incontrovertible fact. It's real. It's demonstrable. Even in practical disagreement -even in actual error. That is often what we disagree over. The application of a shared moral principle. As in, two parties agree we should protect children, and violently disagree about what that protection looks like?

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 am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. 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!
