the other way around, good is what i accept as being good. if a lot of people think the same thing it is constituated as an ideal for the whole society.

i did not say that. i am not the moron you picture me as, i may have problems expressing my thoughts in english because i am not used to discuss these things in a foreign language.

you as an individual have to decide what is good or bad to you.
your decision can be caused by the behaviour of another person as some kind of role-model, it can also come from one of the various book of rules like the bible, the koran, konfuzius, laotze, from a samurai codex, from a philosopher, whatever,there's many possibilities. the people who influenced you were also influenced. but you say it can only come from god, and i say there is no such thing as god, there's only people.
