If you chose no could you please post the objective external standard you use to tell if a system of morality is valid or not.

The “Golden Rule” wouldn’t be considered objective. So I’ll rephrase it:

If everyone can do it (without force), at no-one’s expense (with consent); it is morally correct.

Murder, rape, stealing, lying (outside of self defense), slavery, they don’t meet the above criteria. [censored]-sexuality, premarital sex, does… I’m sure they’re plenty of things that at first glance appear to pass, so let the flaming begin.
