Problem here is: Who defines what is morally acceptable? Perhaps I have absolutely no problems with say abortion while others are against, who will decide whether it is right/wrong?


I said universally. In the majority of the world, rape is considered wrong. So is mindless killing, torture, etc.

there are surprisingly few "universally accepted" moral wrongdoings. you cite rape as the prime example... look at saudi arabia, pakistan, iran, or the catholic church.

Even those places do look down upon rape in general. There might be situations where a Priest molests a child or a group of Muslims in Saudi Arabia rape a woman and such, but just the same can be said for any area really- you still have your gang bangers here in the US and etc.

That doesn't mean it shouldn't be looked down upon still.
