How can one gain a Objective morality, assuming that there is one? How does one gain a morality...?

When you use the capital O, it's like putting a capital R on Romanticism, or an N on Naturalism. It denotes a school of thinking, a particular philosophical world view.

In that way, Objective morality belongs to Objectivism, which is built on the Correspondence Theory of Truth, and was originated by Ayn Rand.

So what is "objectivity"? http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/objectivity.html

What is the correspondence theory? http://www.iep.utm.edu/truth/#H3

The thinking process alone is objective morality. The process of reaching an objective understanding of some activity or other is the process of objectification from the subjective activity of the refractive processes of the lower nervous system. The activity of making sense out of some reality includes moral levels of understanding and determinations if applied are moral objectives. Any determinations made at this level effects the individual as well as the whole that is made up of those individuals.

The only thing that comes to mind is the seal of solomon. The correct foundation, and being resolute in humility. I suppose the ultimate reality of morality will not come until one is perfectly aligned, like critical mass, where if a certain percent is aligned all the rest follow suit and align automatically.

all morality is contingent upon circumstance. for instance, we may be inclined to forgive a poor person for stealing a loaf of bread to feed his family, but what about the casual shoplifter who steals for the sheer thrill of it? both acts amount to theft, but one is more "right" than the other. all actions must be looked upon and judged as an individual scenario. objective morality is an illusion, useful only as a guideline, but not to be taken as law. consider... abortion is legal. does that mean it is "right" to kill the unborn? and marijuana is illegal. does that mean it is "wrong" to enjoy a perfectly natural herb which harms no one? have you ever heard the phrase "a necessary evil"? killing is never a good thing, but could you do it to save your own life or the lives of your loved ones? morality can best be defined as doing always the "right" thing, though it may not necessarily be a "good" or even a "legal" thing. you must achieve your own morality through life experience. you can sometimes learn from others. life is a process of figuring out what life actually means, and what it is good for, and your relative position in the grand scheme of things. it is an individual journey. good luck.

We're not capable of being objective, however, to the extent we can think about the consequences of our actions and learn from them, to the extend we can take into consideration the needs and ideas of others before making up our own mind, we can live in closer harmony with the Good Plato talks about. I think it comes down to operating from the golden rule of doing unto others what we would have them do unto us and then learning from that mode of living, right from wrong action, good from bad.

One must have a commonly agreed definition of "objective" and "morality"- I think there is a book that actually explains it perfectly.

I think that there is no other way than living different experiences, going through different situations, questioning and going deep inside yourself.

Peace!

'Objective' - That upon which all observers can agree?

The more observers you require agreement from'

the smaller the 'objective morality' you will be able to define.

Aint none. Eventheidea makes no sense, not that anything duz make sense.
