I've come to the conclusion that you are thick! Morality is what I or
others say it is from our perspective. It is also what you say it is.
There are no absolute morals therefore they are a matter of opinion. If I
say that fox hunting is immoral then as far as I'm concerned it is.
Because you in your infinite unwisdom may disagree doesn't make it so. It
may be, it may be not. It is a matter of opinion.

Get real! And it's the Emperors new clothes not the Kings!
