"What, do you want a treatise on the subject?"

Not really. Just anything he can twist, distort or pretend that you are wrong.

Tenchu is deep into playing 'gotcha'.

Z, I can tell you why I think my version of right and wrong is valid. Because it actually works when tried. There is a strong record of it over thousands of years.

You can point to the failures of organized religion (Crusades, Inquisition) and reject the underlying message. That's fine. I can point to the failures of organized atheism (Hitler, Stalin, and Mao) and reject any message of godlessness. Same thing.

The whole point is that everyone has their own definition of right and wrong. Doesn't mean every definition is valid. You need to be able to defend yours, especially the distinctions between it and those you reject, if you want yours to actually be accepted.

Either that, or you can do what CJ does. Dodge, spin, and project. That might make you feel better, but you sure won't get any respect from me, for what it's worth.
