I see you and Greg or e as married to one another in the afterlife. The affinity is undeniable.

"All creatures act to their benefit." Sure but when a male bear kills it's own cub just so he can have sex with it's mother we don't call that immoral. When humans do it we throw them in jail or execute them. "Moral laws are simply opinions adopted by any group based on Experience and Reason to the objectives of benefiting the group." Again, tons of counter examples that show your position to be fallacious. What the Nazis did was completely rational and benefited their "group" The problem was not irrationality or group benefit but that killing innocent human beings, even for your groups rational benefit, is objectively evil. "Clearly, reason is reason, experience is experience, and people are people…." Clearly you are an idiot and here is the proof. <Moral relativists can’t accuse others of wrongdoing.> "Why not? Do you know of a community without a police force of some sort to find and detain people accused of wrong doing?" You're citing arbitrary and relative examples and then asking why not? Are you STUNNED? Don't answer that: it's an observation not a question. All your objections demonstrate the same basic lack of understanding and awareness of not only your own position, but even of the question being asked.
