Sephus,
if morality is like tastes, then what's the problem with nazi-Germany and Jews (for example)?

[/ QUOTE ]

morality is not like tastes. morality is tastes. it's tastes for behavior.

you're asking why i find the holocaust so distasteful, but the irony is you want to know how i can find it distasteful given that i realize my distaste for it is not based on an objective standard! it doesn't matter.

[ QUOTE ]
If social norms are changing, but not necessarily improving, then isn't the change clearly random?

[/ QUOTE ]

we must have different ideas about what the word "random" means.

[ QUOTE ]
when I say "X is wrong" i'm saying "i have weighed the effects X has to everything it affects, and then come to conclusion that it causes more bad than good"

[/ QUOTE ]

and "bad" and "good" are expressions of taste, are they not? when you say "X causes bad" you're saying "X causes things i don't like" or "X causes things people don't like."
