Trouble is we all say it -X is wrong!- and have been doing so since before people were able to articulate why, let alone reason regarding why it is wrong.  Moral behavior is part of our species deal.  You like to imagine something fantastical that no one can detect maintains the moral facts.  That to me is absurd.

You think it is absurd for people to go on saying acts are wrong when we understand that it is our feeling and not our reason that is doing the talking.  I say that is as it's always been.  So what?
