Yes. Is one person dead better or worse than six people suffering horribly?

I'd say they are independent instances of well-being that can not be compared.

why is it logical to sum up the morality of groups like it had units?

Because they do. Groups are made up of individual people. People are the focus of our aim for an objective morality.

Why not? I thought it was individuals - units - you were concerned about. Also justifying rationally, you said.

I'm not in disagreement w you. I just don't think we can be objective. We have to agree premises, argue for them, work from there

we have to identify a goal and what's the best way to achieve it. Doesn't have to be demonstrated logically.

How else can it be demonstrated. Your argument needs to work logically or it has no credibility.
