I think we've talked this subject to death.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Oh I know. I said I thought most did, though I would never say all.

I totally agree with you.  I also think most here would say morality is a cultural institution.

Haha, true true. I guess I just wasn't expecting a comment like that here. That's normally a religious point of view.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

I do believe in objective right and wrong.
Fucking everything is objective to me.

Except bias.
