"Everyone has desires; everyone has wrong desires. How do we know they're wrong? What do we do about them? That's the central question, the central issue. There are basically only two answers: (1) we can't ever know, so we make it up; or (2) God said. "

Or 3) Because they’re counterproductive to our lives.

[BibChr]

Nope, won't work. How do you know what's counterproductive? Are you omniscient? Even so, what you've come up with is not a morality, it's just a technique or a method. It isn't in any way transcendent. It rests on another unprovable assumption which has no authority.

IOW, you made it up.

There are just the two options.
