Welcome to Gaia! ::

Objective Morality: States a set of morality as fact for a specific Species or an just in general. Often Proclaims morality as to being ordained from a higher power, usually a god. Insulting to the progress of human thought do to the fact that Objective morality is usually comprised with a list of what is moral and what is immoral rather than being a single detail, because of the list being somewhat varient, such sets most often hold major flaws that pose a danger to society. In another way, this form of "Morality" also most often proclaims that the human race is evolved enough to be truly in tune with moral behavior and understanding, that there is an overglorification.

Subjective Morality: Subjective Morality is in support of this sort of thinking: It is moral for me, but it is not Moral for you. This here is dangerous because it supports Morality without a filter, meaning a moral code can be written and promoted with any details and supports. For example, would you dare glorify a moral code that states enslaving people as to being moral? Or raping nine year old girls as moral? I sure hope not, for if you would, me and many others would wish to see you in prison for life.

Revealing Morality: This here concept of Morality neither thinks little of humanity nor overglorifies it's average state of mind. Instead, this form of Morality praises the potential in the human race but aims to promote the humble understanding that the human race is no where evolved enough to truly fully understand and see the truths of what is Moral and what is Immoral. Thus it states that Morality reveals it's self over time as humans evolve into more virtuous and Conscientious beings, and that without human being evolving in such a way, they won't be able to see it.

Well this wasn't an exceptionally biased Topic at all.

It's a false dichotomy to say that either there's one unifying moral stance or all moral stances are equal.

Objective morality without reference to a deity of any kind.

Certain acts like murder, rape, theft, telling hurtful lies and other hurtful acts are immoral.

I'm more of a "treat others as you would like to be treated" morality, which none of those three seem to cover at all.

"Others" and "you" are quintessentially subjective.

I'll admit I don't see how. Could you explain further?

It depends on the person and you.

"Others" and "you" are defining of yourself as a subject; your "others" and "you" are not the same as my "others" and "you", are not the same as Pseudo-Onkelos's "others" and "you", etc.

Well I don't want to be murdered, and I'm pretty sure that no one else wants to be murdered. I don't want to be stolen from and I'm pretty sure no one else wants to be stolen from, regardless of the reasons behind it. The only faults I can think of are in accounting for cultural differences.

Did
I find the word "morality" and it's connotations meaningless.
I think morality is subjective in that people do not always agree on what is right and wrong. However, that doesn't mean I think that society should cater to individual morals. As a community we agree to the morality that the majority adheres to and we enforce those rules.
