FMF: Do you agree with the three broad principles I laid out?

Like me, and everybody else, when it came to morality, you learned, deduced and internalized stuff from your environment, you adapted it, or reacted against it. You mimicked what seemed to work; you rejected what didn't. You were exposed to information and perspectives, some of it in competition with each other. It made you see things in certain ways. It even made you certain about certain things, whether it be about supernatural notions, about political things like Marxism or apartheid, homosexuality, culture, whatever.
Aside for your hopes of being immortal - as some kind of far-fetched quid pro quo reward for thinking some superstitious stuff and worshipping some magical being that inhabits your imagination - it all boils down to the same source and purpose for your moral code as everybody else's. It's a product of your socialization and your human nature and faculties. It's personal. It's unique. It's a tool, a guide, a facility, a capacity. It's not "a law".
You can pronounce your own sensibilities "objective" till you go blue in the face, and do so in your chosen persona's pretentious, juvenile and trollish way - go for it if it floats your boat - but it will not alter the facts of the mater about the real life source, nature and purpose of morality.
