I couldn’t figure out the context of moral context in the post above. While Stonekettle does say that morals are for people, I remember getting the impression that he also thinks people are pining for a moral compass that never existed (sort of like the good old days).

I think morality falls into the Plato/Aristotle/Socrates realm.

Meaning, it is subjective. I’ve yet to see a mathematical equation that sums up right from wrong.

This is the best I’ve found:

All evil and good is petty before Nature. Personally, we take comfort from this, that there is a universe to admire that cannot be twisted to villainy or good, but which simply is.
