Why?

Quote:Labelling things as "moral" or "immoral" at a given time is inane. You tell me and everybody why we need this notion of "morality"?

Why is labelling things with moral value inane? Do you find labelling things generally to be inane or is your issue particularly with assignment of moral value? If so what is your objection?
