In other words, morals are not universal. There is no supreme law that says that murder is wrong, that human equality is right. Not unless there is a Supreme Being. Otherwise, those values are actually just accepted by the majority of society. Being moral in one society may be immoral in another.
I hope you use the term warfare in a bit of hyperbole. I do not wish to cause contention, though I debate passionately. I really had no side point. I just used a lot of words to convey my point, which I summarized in the above quote.
Well and I did not argue against that simply because I agreed with that part. But further in you post, you gave a huge credit to religion for modern western moral norms, which I argued against.
You stated that I needed to provide my points clearer. Thus I underlined my points.
Ultimately, my point was one thing, which I am stating again, though it is underlined above:
Morals are not universal (unless there is a superior Lawmaker). They are defined by society.
