Read my post again, and you'll have your answer.

Not that my answer makes morality more stable, or universal, which is what we were debating.

I think the term "dog chasing its tail" is particularly apt here.....

Morality comes from within all of us. It is not an object that can be measured. I can only give you my opinion and presume others morals. To me, a moral is another feeling.

The holocaust should never be morally acceptable to anyone, but it most certainly was.

I will answer any question I think I can give an answer to. Is the grass green? To me it is, but my green may not be your green. We've just looked at grass as a child, and someone else told us it was green. Your green could be my yellow, but we'll never know.

The grass is -mainly- green - to me.

The holocaust was morally wrong -to me.

Morality is just a collective noun for all morals Warren, so how can I know morality, if it is different for everyone?

Hey, people complained about the bloody footy threads! !laugh!

Never satisfied some people eh? !wink!

You could have always edited my answer Wazza. Seen you do that before! !wink!

If it's good enough for you, then that's ok by me.



note - I always assumed colour blindness was an inability to perceive differences between colours, which makes it easy to spot?

If I always saw your green as yellow, but labelled the colour as green; because that is the label I was learnt to associate with that particular colour, then we'd never know any difference as we'd both label the colour as green regardless of the actual colour we were seeing.

It would be impossible to diagnose, and everyone could actually see colours totally differently without knowing it because we have the same labels for those particular wavelengths of light.

Isn't it obvious?

My analogy holds.

I have no argument with capitalising the Holocaust; my apologies.
