Well, intent and emotions can be distinguished too. But how you feel does not alter the intent of the act. Yes, I later saw that intent and feeling are different. I think there is objective morality, regardless of intent. Define objective morality.
Objective morality is natural law .
Intent is discussed in the Sermon on the Mount. And maybe that backs up your point. There is certainly that, but we are talking about how people act, not how they should act. We are talking about the intent behind the act. I should intend to have perfect motives for doing some moral act.
