could come up with some moral absolutes, that is, what I think should be moral absolutes were there any. I trust you could, too, and most other people. Problem is that the lists wouldn't be the same.

A moral action is one that does not interfere with anyone else's property. Property is a persons life, ideas, and secondary property.

That's my definition. If you don't like it, you are free to use another. But at least you know what I mean when I use mine.

There will be no progress in the "Social Sciences" until terms are defined. We wouldn't get on a plane designed by a committee that couldn't define "F=MA," but we deal with each other politically without defining what we are talking about.
