There are no objective morals does not equal there are no morals.
If you think something is unjust you can do so without thinking it is objectively unjust.
the argument for a moral law fails as it uses personal emotions to establish there is an objective law. that is self refuting as personal emotions are subjective by definition. To establish if a specific moral is objective only reason and not emotion can be used. Turok does not do this.
Did he really say morality doesn't exist because it's immaterial in the physical world? I'm sorry, but that's the load of BS I've heard. Morality exist in the marketplace of ideas, not the physical world. It's an intellectual trait of subjectivism, not an incoherent standard of actions and ideals that came from some ostensible deity.
This whole "worldview" strawman argument is utter bigoted dogma.
'Givin sufficiently specified standards of morality it will be an objective issue how well any particular specimen measures up to those standards.'
of course the choice of standards won't be objective but nether will it be completley arbitrary because what we value isn't completley random but highly influenced by what kind of creature we are.
Oh... Excuse me, I must be mistaken. Absolutes are undeniable huh? I get it now! So your trying to say that there is ABSOLUTELY NO SUCH THING AS ABSOLUTES!... Oh wait, I think you need to look up the word "contradiction".
Good one Brian- the fact that he hasn't replied means that either he does not ha ve a good answer, or he finds these videos too threatening on his position to return.
@BrianTubbs Of course the statement "all moral standards are subjective" isn't a moral position! It doesn't prescribe anything! or say anything at all about how we should act!
He probably didn't respond because you revealed that you are not worthy of debate even by uttering such a question.
He is just taking the moral standard allegedly from some god, and declares those the objective moral standard. that is totally nonsensical, and moral is not absolute.

There is a difference between subjective morality and relative morality....that distinction does not seem to be made here.

@Aanthanur, you say "all moral standards are subjective."
Two questions for you....
Is your position ("all moral standards are subjective") a moral position?
If so, is it subjective?
