Morality

Morality is opinion you dumb#. Don't post 10 paragraph long articles about the nature of morality. You already knew this was the answer.

Molestation
Torture
Murder
Suicide
Battery

Morals and Ethics are opinion and therefore relative. there is no such thing as Absolute Immorality, especially since the "Absolute" listed here is broken legaly through wars and the Death penalty. who deems the damage as necessary?

I was an example. This is actually about morality and the way it get's thrown around as an attack against anything that strays from the 'norm'.

Didn't you just do that by labeling "Absolute Immoralities"?

No, the absolute and secondary immoralities thing was a reply to another post on page 2. I didn't come out saying it and the "lists" were there simply to stir debate.

What is it that determines something's morality against another?

IMHO - the unwarranted harming someone else is immoral.
The smoking and drinking harms yourself, so that's just stupidity.
Unless you have a family to take care of ... then by hurting yourself you hurt them.
So we are back to immoral.
