I don't know of any evidence either. I have my own personal ethical views but I'm not sure how they could ever be objective. So I'm still a moral nihilist at the moment.

I'm quite interested in the idea that what we value are the only things we can value, and, since it makes no sense to say we should value what we can't, there's nothing else we should value. If we should value anything that is. And if we're not going to value anything then we're being amoral and not talking of what's moral.

I'm not fully convinced by anything really and as far as I'm concerned I'm a moral nihilist.
