Me: Evidently morality does not flow from society by your own admission.

You: Sure it does. That doesn't mean, however, that such morality always leads to a properly functioning society.

You claim that communist countries are moral but being moral doesn't always lead to a properly functioning society. Interesting. Stalin murdered tens of millions. They subsumed the indivdual to the "society". Do you consider these things moral?

No. I claim that certain moral systems don't lead to properly functioning societies.
