@Night Ripper,
I see. So morality is all about
you. Whatever entity
you can muster empathy for merits moral consideration. If you can't, tough luck for the entity. Whatever act makes
you feel unclean when you commit it is immoral, no matter how much good it does for other people. Because it's not
about those other people, it's just about you.
I don't think you're engaging in ethics at all---just in narcissism.

I'm not one of them.
That's not the point. The point is, do people who're incapable of empathy get excused from the moral obligations other people have?
