Redefining Morality
What is morality? Strip away the philosophical abstractions, the religious doctrines, the cultural variations and you arrive at something surprisingly simple: morality is the general consensus of humankind.
Not the consensus of a government. Not the consensus of a committee. Not the opinion of experts or the rulings of courts. True morality, in its purest form, is the aggregated understanding, values, and preferences of every conscious human being on the planet at any given moment.
