Hmm, okay maybe we're approaching this the wrong way...

Torturing babies for pleasure would be one example. Even if the entire world decided that this was acceptable behavior, in fact rewarded those who did it, it would still be morally wrong. The moral value of this action is not contingent on the cultural response to it.

Why exactly would torturing babies be immorral then? If nobody has a problem with it why is it wrong?
