The Subjective Element of Morality
 

Morality can be defined and created through objective reality due to material life stabilizing the realities as the method of overcoming sin. But there is a subjective element to morality. Love is the word for it, but corrupters like to use the word love to describe their corruptions. So it's important to include specific clarifications when using the word love.

It's possible to go through the motions of doing anything, while the result is the opposite. The subjective factors determine how real the results are.

It's quite observable that persons who cannot understand victimization cannot understand morality. If morality isn't an attempt to prevent victimization, it isn't morality. This view is not an arbitrary way of looking at morality; it's the only view that produces the result of morality.

Victimization means injustice. But for analytical purposes it's clearer to use the word victimization than the word injustice, because corrupters cannot as easily understand injustice. You often find perpetrators of injustice whining about the injustice done to themselves.

This is exactly why morality cannot be found apart from victimization—It's because morality cannot be separated from one's own concerns, and concerns are not properly aligned upon justice apart from concerns for victimization. There is not a theoretical reason which is visible why this blindness would exist; it's just observable to be the case.

This does not mean that only victims understand morality. It means only persons who have been victimized at some time in the past can understand morality. Being victimized creates a concern which persists. Persons who have been victimized want to make sure it never happens to themselves or to others.

But this concern is only the subjective element of morality which creates the sense of direction. After the concern exists, learning moral standards and producing morality requires a relationship to objective reality.
