Brother, you need to grow the fuck up. Right now, you're coming across as one of those try-hard college students on a 'Rationality Rulez' bender.

Morality is subjective but not in the manner you're describing. It's not arbitrary. Our values are conjured out of thin air but for reasons that DO involve the betterment of humanity.

Slavery isn't subjective, and extermination camps sure as hell are not either.


Sometimes is not, some people values does not involve the betterment of society. Unless you claim everyone think alike.

How is slavery or extermination camps not subjective? The slave owner may think slavery is good thing but the slaves may think its horrible.


Frankly speaking, your moral framework needs work. Sincerely, the rest of society.


Its normal. You may disagree with my morality and me or other people may as well disagree with your morality, whatever that is.


Any moral framework that attempts to justify outright lying in order to obtain personal gain at others' expense is not only not normal, it is also indefensible.


Normal as in I don't expect everyone will agree. There is no moral framework that everyone will agree anyway.

Whether its indefensible or not, is matter of your preference/personal value.


Out of curiosity, are you an atheist/agnostic?
