Objective moral evil without subjective moral guilt. Thank you for explaining that so clearly.

Thank goodness we have a plain speaker in Archbishop Vincent Nichols, who tells it as it is.

As reported in the Guardian of 22nd February 2012, the Archbishop said,

Phrases like "abstract moral evil", he said, are not aimed at any individual. "One talks about objective moral evil, you might say today, that's racism. No matter what's intended or understood, that, objectively, is wrong. In a similar way, you can say, in every sphere of life there is objective moral evil. But that does not imply subjective moral guilt. That does not imply guilt on an individual."

So now you know.
