People measure morality be comparing their agreement on moral choices. It’s purely behavioral.
As a corollary, a morality that does not tell a person how to make a choice is functionally defective, but it is not immoral.
There are lots of ways of resolving moral disputes (majority rule, check the oracle, might makes right). But the decision of which resolution method to pick is itself a moral choice. You can force me to make a particular choice, but you can’t use force to make me think that choice was right.
Ok, I like “ordered list of (abstract concepts people use to make decisions).”
I reiterate my points above: When people say a decision is better, they mean the decision was more consistent with their list than alternative decisions. When people disagree about how to make a choice, the conflict resolution procedure each side prefers is also determined by their list.

Sorry, I don’t know what morality is. I thought we were talking about “morality”. Taboo your words.
