> If morality is arbitrary, what does it matter how strong anyone's beliefs are? If the child molester's belief that molesting children is right, is stronger than your belief that it is wrong, does that make it right???

Because if there are no absolute morals, you have to actually convince people that your choice of morals is correct.

> So which society determines which morals are right?

The one you live in, and that can affect you? That's pretty obvious. If you disagree with it, you work to change it.

Maybe you should save your gloating over the idiotic statements of your opponent until such a time that they actually make them.

> Hey, you are the one who believes that torturing babies for fun could be right.

No, I do not believe that, because I believe that even if morals are arbitary and decided by society, I also believe in the basic decency of man, and I can be fairly certain that no society would think this.
