>there are actually people who spend their entire life on ethics

How do these retards not realize after their freshman year all values are subjective? The closest thing to a true or objective morality is one that develops out of practicality, but what is practical to one person is impractical to another depending on their subjective values.

Seriously how can you spend 20 years and not realise this trying to give "rational" arguments for a moral system?

you're just shifting the argument to another layer of values, at the bottom level there are only completely subjective values. There is no rational without first an irrational drive to be rational.

yes, but people still want values. so there will still be debate over which values we want to use
