<nitpick>As written, this implies that every LWer holds a different moral theory, which seems obviously false. A better phrasing might be, "There does not appear to be a majority position on morality on LW."</nitpick>

Also, talking about only LWers seems a bit narrow. I would have gone for "moral philosophers in general", actually.
