if, as evidence suggests, morality is a human-created concept, then it is dependent on each person.



Even the term “God” is human-created. So is all of mathematics. Or, you can say we discovered it. Sometimes I feel this is more a matter of attitude.

I do not believe morality being human-created implies the code of conduct need be dependent on each individual - it does imply that it depends a lot on humanity, however.

Let me add one important thing. Morality needs to account for the fact that there is such a thing as choice, anyway. Just because two people would act differently in a scenario doesn’t mean one of them has to be wrong - but I think the key is we should be able to say what is in fact wrong based on the characterization of “Happiness” given.
