I've always been extremely intrigued by the topic of morality: from where people believe their moral compass is derived, the notion of objective morality absent a subjective starting point and societal differences in terms of moral standards / ethical applications.
I am a firm proponent of the idea that all moral judgements are completely and necessarily subjective until a foundation can be agreed upon to act as the guide for moral questions and dilemmas. Only after agreeing on a subjective foundation that takes all people into account, can objective moral truths be proclaimed.
In my opinion, the best and most inclusive foundation is the overall well-being of our species.
I have many thoughts on the subject of morality and hope to discuss further with anyone willing to have the conversation and offer their opinions on the matter.
