It's not hard to think of other reasons for absolute morals if the right half of the equation is left open.

It is hard for me. I can’t think of any. Have any examples in mind?

I suspect that's because you have a definition of Absolute Morals that you haven't shared yet. If you make a clear statement along the lines of - An Absolute Moral is one that action X is always immoral. ( or whatever definition you are using, ... have at it)
then we'll see if the examples I have in mind fit the definition you set.

your move, luckyme..
.. if I thought I was wrong, I'd change my mind

LuckyMan,

Any of my definitions of Absolute Morality would be within the context of a God. That would not add to the discussion. Indeed it would probably only lead to diverting the point to whether or not said Absolutes are indeed Absolutes.

In other words, my definitions would only muddy the conversation. So, I again ask (and I am not at all being facetious or rhetorical) – do you have any examples in mind? I can’t think of any myself.
