That's mostly the question I wanted to discuss here. If you want my own personal opinion, I think that it should be considered, but we shouldn't assign a massive amount of weight to it. I've studied enough psychology to learn that humans are not often reliable. I also wouldn't be very inclined to count the "moral intuitions" of militant religious groups. In this case, however, I'm more unsure.
I mean, as you going for a "moral realist" position, where other people might have insight into the "true" morality?
Or is it that other people's moral intuition might bring up issues that you hadn't thought off, or illustrate the consequences of some of your own positions?
Or is it political: it would be better to have a more consensus view (for practical or moral reasons), even if we disagree with certain aspects of it?
