"You should care about the moral code you have arbitrarily chosen."
No, I shouldn't. Which seems to be the focal point of this endless 'debate'.
Well, you might choose to care about a moral code you have arbitrarily chosen. And it could be argued that if you don't care about it then you haven't "really" chosen it.
I agree with you that there needn't be any platonic absolute morality that says you ought choose a moral code arbitrarily and care about it, or that if you do happen to choose a moral code arbitrarily that you should then care about it.
