But as was previously stated, it's not an objective natural law, it's entirely encompassed within the interactions of sentient beings.
I accept your answer just fine, but it differs with your conclusion. You conclude that for all advanced sentient beings rape is wrong, regardless of time location or public opinion. This is a truth you present as being without exception in time or space... making it universally true. How is it that there exists a truth that is larger than every advance civilization in the universe?
You seem to be consistently conflating universality as applied by the subject with universality in and of itself.
It's a murky, deep area of the marsh that's being treaded on but your questions keep skipping across only the surface.
I already said that the person making the judgement as to it always being wrong is myself. I did not say that meant it was universally true absent of my particular judgement.
