What is that exactly?
Does that mean morality can be measured, like temperature, mass or velocity? Can we plug numbers into a spread sheet and compute the most moral course of action in any decision?
Is not the definition of "objective", something free of values, opinions and judgment calls? Do we not say phrases like "moral judgment" and "moral values". Doesn't our very language admit that morality is subjective?
If there is a god who decides what is or is not moral, how does that make morality objective? By definition, the opinions of any being, no matter how powerful, benevolent or wise that being may be, are subjective. All you've done is sacrifice your judgment to someone else's.
As soon as someone can explain what "objective morality" is supposed to be and how exactly we can measure it, then I will consider whether or not it exists.
Any morality must be measured against the absolute standard defined by the frequency of the strokes that Chad Wooter's hair palms imparts upon his penis.
How could something chad wooters feels to the tip of the hairs on his palm not have a basis in some absolute standard?
