(January 26, 2015 at 5:07 pm)Dystopia Wrote: Then how do we answer the theist argument - If there are no objective or absolute moral standards then every individual's moral spectrum is equally valid, and therefore practices, actions and habits like murder, sex assault, violence, mutilation, torture...[the list goes on] should be perfectly acceptable and not censored in human societies.

[I'm sorry if the answer is obvious but I don't know how to refute this one]
Because morals come from what people dislike. We don't like killing, and have no reason to violate others' dislike of dying.
