That’s how our society functions notwithstanding. How does this become “crude”?

Never mind the lack of definition for “freedom” and “self-determination” in this context. Do they mean “license” and “self-aggrandizement” respectively here? or something else?

Our society's rules are not unalterable. They are not the product of an unchanging cosmic dictatorship.

If I were conscripted by the state to kill Amalekite children, I would kill my commanders, and I would have moral justification for doing so.
