Your above comment is irrelivent, the point stands: How far can moral relativism go? At what point is something wrong? If there is no objective measure, then we are talking nihilism.
On the topic of abortion I really think an abortion can be used as long as the child is under 21 years of age. Once he is 21 he is an adult, and deserves life
Would this also apply to Dwarfs, because even at 21 they have not really grown up.
We should apply spartan law: any child that is stunted or deformed is put down. Immediately

I know you're probably just having a bit of fun with Jenos, but Godwin's law was constructed in order to ignore the most obvious example of evil in the world. Many people appeal to the Third Reich as an example or warning. It's such an obvious example that others don't want to acknowledge it so they invoke this farce of Godwin's Law to get around the argument.
That's wrong. The law was constructed to make sure unneccesary references to hitler or the nazis are ignored.
Sure, sure it was
Yep. Hitler was evil, but that doesn't mean that every minute thing he did was evil, or that every detail about him was evil. It can get to the point that any argument can be supported by a Nazi reference.
Godwin's law merely states that if you have to resort to a Nazi reference (which is infinitely flexible, very strong-sounding, but logically flawed), then you're on your last legs and have probably lost the argument already. You're trying to club us with a bludgeon, which is heavy but imprecise. Try being a little more careful.

Hence why I keep on after the morons who bring this farce up.

OK, let me rephrase Godwin's Law (as it has come to be used). If you allege that the opposition in a debate is like Hitler/the Nazis you have fallen back on something so cliched, so persistently incorrect, so uncreative, that you are deemed to have lost the debate because of poor argument. While the poor argument bit is usually true, the rule is more of a meme than a set law, referred to in jest. I believe the 's might have tipped you off to that.
Being attacked by Jenos is akin to being molested by a stunted Piranha who has yet to recover from a major bout of dental surgery. Mind you his use of irony is equisite ....calling other people morons

And your posts all have the structural integrity of a house of cards.

Quit dodging the main point of the argument: at what point is something wrong? How awful does something have to be before it is unacceptible. I could scour the thesaurus for hours on end to put this in many, many differnent ways but I think simplicity is the name of the game when dealling with pompass hypocrites who thing I'M the drooling retard.
Now that I have that out of my system..........
Answer my bleedin' question: What is the criteria that you use to determine what is correct and incorrect?

Hey, what do I know? If my views are not the same (how can they be, everything I've been told says you have no views), then by default I'm the weirdo.
Do I smell hypocrisy? Oh yes, you, yes you can Fridge and DM and all the other "moral relativists" all stink to high heaven of your own self-important hypocrisy! The only thing that would really make me laugh about all this is if this played out like a classic Greek Tragidy, where you all drowned in a quagmire of your own making .
Now that I am done baiting and riling like a bunch of rabid dogs on a steel tether.............
Good Day!

I'd say that the point something wrong comes somewhere beyond words personally, but you don't seem to quite agree. <Insert appropriate smiley>
That out of the way, something is wrong when most people say it is, and more often than not that basically comes down to not harming other people. That's pretty much the guideline. If it only affects you, s'all good. Step into someone else's territory and not so much. Even that isn't a solid line though. If you want to definitively know what is just, you're shit out of luck. Morality is surprisingly relative.
