Can life not be sacred to me as well? Can I not agree that hurting sacred things is wrong? Seems to me that I can, and it seems to me that I can do so while conceding the simple fact that this is my subjective appraisal of morality? Aftyer all, my morality being subjective doesn't make it any better or worse on that count, nor does it make what is wrong.... "wronger", or right "righter".
You and I both agree, and here again......if there were no other reason..would that not be enough for the two of us? It;s dignity, apoprently, that you appeal to when you consider morality. Well, dignity is not the command of a god, is it?
(by the by, there are no levels...life isn't a video game)
