I gave you the definition of the word objective before. How is it corrupted or distorted?

You are entitled to regard whatever you want as being a "law" that applies to you. You are entitled to regard whatever supernatural instructions and rules you want as being stuff that applies to you and even to everyone else (including those who believe different stuff). It doesn't make it "an objective moral law". You use the word "objective" where what you me ...[text shortened]... . you are very, very, very sincere about how true whatever has tickled your subjective fancy is.

Originally posted by @dj2beckerYou don’t offer an objective standard. You have an obsession with supernatural causality which is purely subjective.

Originally posted by @fmfFrom your perspective maybe I don't. Is your perspective objectively correct? How can you say that my perspective is wrong? Unless you assume that your perspective is objectively correct?

Originally posted by @dj2beckerI have said that your superstitious perspective is not objective, despite your insistence that it is. Whether you believe you are right or wrong, or whether you believe I am right or wrong, does not affect the lack of objectivity of what you are asserting. Gosh it's as if you've never read any of my posts.
How can you say that my perspective is wrong?
Originally posted by @dj2beckerGood grief, like I said, it's as if you've never read any of my posts. Have you not understood what I have been saying about the word "objective"? How can you ask such an uncomprehending question after all the discussions we've had. Read what I post!
Is your perspective objectively correct?
Originally posted by @dj2beckerYour judgment and declarations regarding morality are influenced by your personal feelings, preferences and opinions in your consideration and representation of what you claim to be facts. You have even admitted you cannot prove that any of the assertions you make about supernatural things are true. So your moral perspective is entirely subjective. Whacking on the label "objective" does not alter this.

Originally posted by @dj2beckerYour liking for Hebrew mythology, and your insistence that those commandments are of supernatural origin, is an outcome of your subjectivity. You got your moral sensibilities from the culture you grew up in, just like I did.
