Why can't it? Just because empathy is subjective doesn't mean that it can't inform your moral standards. -Everything you perceive- is subjective...and yet you lean on those things in order to inform your moralaity...your belief, as I've been trying to explain to you, is extraneous and irrelevant (and also subjective...as you are free to believe in an exceedingly subjective way). You've given an entirely satisfactory explanation of why you perceive some things to be morally wrong which simply doesn't have anything to do with a god, regardless of whether or not you believe in one. Sure, someone may disagree, but so what...we'll hit them over the head with bricks or lock them in a closest in west texas if they step out of line.
We got this, brah.
