Moral as in compassionate, empathic, responsible actions. My morals are pretty clear to me, but I can understand how they would seem contradictory to others: Under certain circumstances I would very much be against the killing of animals, under others, perfectly happy with it.
My point was that I have a huge moral "grey area" in which whether something is morally right or wrong is unclear as a result of my own beliefs, and that I would prefer this and steak to a moral system under which there is no contradiction.
