(February 18, 2015 at 4:05 pm)ether-ore Wrote: I doubt that I would be able to offer you an acceptable explanation, or rather one that would be acceptable to you. However, these are my thoughts on the matter: Any moral code on the face of this earth would necessarily be subjective or relative according to the definitions I gave earlier. Consequently, and by process of elimination, an objective moral code would have to be eternal as opposed to temporal. An eternal moral law would of necessity have to have an administrator... God.

If you think that an objective moral code can come about as a product of a subjective being, then I don't think you know what either of those words mean.
