However, the objective reality is prone to subjective interpretations, varying from individual to individual - hence, from my point of view, every individual should build their own moral system, as it is the only way to stay true to one's nature.

What if 6 of 10 pirates say it's OK to kill you and gang rape your woman? Is that moral? Going by your own example, it's kosher.

I don't see how an immoral act can happen without harm, but I am open to examples to the contrary.
