I think only the religious believe that morality is real with any overarching purpose. However, creating systems of morality is something else entirely. While I feel you could be accused of a certain amount of semantics I respect your opinion and thank you for the reply. Interesting and informative as always.

I reject the idea that morality exists as anything more meaningful that subjective experiences that are defined by each individual. That fundamentally people are emotional, sentient entities, independent; who exist subjectively. Someone who has anti-social personality disorder cannot do this, they lack the capacity to see people as anything more than objects in their world. Whilst I choose not to rape, not because of morality, but because I understand that its traumatic, damaging, violent; and something to which I would object to being done to me. Someone with anti-social personality disorder / psychopathy is incapable of understanding that difference. As such, whilst I don't believe that morality is real in any meaningful way, I am capable of understanding concepts like right and wrong, and engage in understanding them and defining them. Brady wasn't, fundamentally, people exist for his benefit, not their own. Does all this pretentious bollo*ks mean Brady was a wrong'un?
