Do you believe in absolute moral values?

Why or why not? If not, what do we base values on? Think deep peeps!

They can be very subjective

@dark548fromEP: Personally, I believe that there is a moral code written into the fabric of the universe. This code is universal and unchanging. That's why, as humans, we so quickly make moral judgements. When we see someone abuse a child, we think "That's wrong", and we believe that is wrong all the time, for everyone.

@silmarilion456: I agree completely. But do the values change, or are we simply forgiving?

Mostly subjective and situational. It is right to kill to protect your family from a violent armed burglar as an example.

One might argue that not murdering and killing to protect your family are compatible absolute values. Perhaps different behavior is appropriate in different situations, but the underlying values are constant?
