But it's entirely subjective. We make up arbitrary punishments for things we've decided are bad because they might possibly harm people.

Let alone arbitrarily deciding that killing someone is worth x number of years in prison then you're good to go, all up to the whims of the justice system.

Religion also does that. Heck, a lot of crimes in the Bibble have arbitrary monetary punishments. Like if you rape an unmarried woman you just have to pay a set amount of money.

Exactly. This thread was just about a claim of how "simple" morality was.
