You seem to be using subjective experiences and the ability to experience them as base for your moral system. Is it the case? Why?

I dont believe for a second that let's say you did something you knew to be evil, such as kill a child for convenience, and were hypothetically asked about this in an after life: "why did you do it, you knew it was evil," that you'd be able to say honestly that you didn't actually know that.

As far as I am aware anything is possible, but suffering and happiness seem to be real.
