I am saying that the way people behave already, both the moral and the immoral, is only moral or immoral in a subjective sense. This doesn't change whether people are good or bad or not.
Some people just 'carry out whatever desire takes their fancy at the time' - but that's the case whether morals are subjective or objective. I just know of no evidence that they are objective, that's all I'm saying. I only have reason to believe that they are subjective.
Finally, if people believe they absolutely know what is moral or immoral when they don't and it's in fact it's ultimately a subjective matter (as I believe it is), then that kills moral debate. And I, subjectively, think that it is better for people if things are discussed rather than people acting like tyrants, whether there's evidence for objective morals or not - that's my own subjective opinion on the matter. What's yours?
