(Up to: On Morality )

If morality were absolute, it should pervade the whole universe. Yet we, as moralistic humans, don't attempt to stop behaviour in other animals that we would find deplorable if amongst humans. For instance, we may find the idea of one spider eating another after sex disgusting, but we do not say that such spiders should not have sex.

Actually, there are 2 possible logical conclusions stemming from this:

1. Morals are relative, and therefore it's silly* to impose them on others, or even to assume your own are anything other than current opinion.

2. Morals are "universal" only within the human domain. But see |!IndividualMoralityVsEmergentSocialReality|.

   • I'd use the word "wrong" here, but do I mean logically wrong or morally wrong. See |!CrapWords-WrongAndRight|.
