I tend to agree with that point of view.

In my posts above I was deliberately avoiding stating what I personally think, but trying to pin down *if* there is a core, unchanging, morality as opposed to *what* I believe it is or what gives it authority. That was in response to the ever changing "moral compass" post. I hope the above "admission" doesn't cloud the issue!
