Objective morality as a proper basic belief

Hi LH.

I notice that like to set up a scenario that supports your position but I don't think it came with much thought. Not to many people are concerned with the morals of eating, unless you run up against a militant vegan or PETA member. Try eating meat around them and see is your are not morally judged. How's your food analogy now?

As to the rape and murder scenarios, you've certainly picked a couple of extremes that (I believe) almost all people would say is morally wrong. But morals get applied to more than just rape and murder. Stealing, lying, cheating, gambling, killing (murders lesser cousin), war, stem cells, abortion, gambling, sex, .......... Would you like to tell us your moral positions on these issues when considered in a range of situations? 

If you are honest I believe that you will have to admit that when looking at gambling (an easy one to pick) the moral aspect is subjective (I say it exists on a sliding scale). So if I'm a total ass and gamble every day to excess to the harm of myself and my family or work most would say I am wrong. If I buy a lottery ticket once a week and harm no one am I wrong to the same extent? It's still gambling. Can you take a moral factual position?

So, are you honest (watch out, moral people are watching)?

You only have to show 1 example of OM to illustrate that OM exists.

bold mine: you seem to be having some issues when responding. And I think you should have said "I" and not "You". 

Well, well, that's quite the non-response and not unexpected. Didn't address one thing in my post. Can I consider that not entirely honest?

If only one case/example of an objective moral (one) exists and can be applied to our society, then I would say that objective morals (many) are pretty must useless.
