Objectivity without Objects?

Should you think about your duty, or about the consequences of your actions? Or should you concentrate on becoming a good person?

How can I do that?
Do you have a portable program? I would like to have a copy.
It is a Word Macro I wrote. I started writing my own Word macro's back when Word 2 came out. I actually started copying books, on a TI-99., When I copied the Bible, it took 32 disk, I used the concordance to write a spell checker.

There is, or was, a program called, I believe, InfoSearch, which might be still around and of some use. I tried it, but did not like it, as the results were text, and my macro worked within Word, and I could do some formatting automatically with it.
It does not appear your Macro is that useful that I [the methodology] could borrow.

Here is a methodology I had been using [that ignorant FDP condemned as above];
1. Number every paragraph for each Chapter like what is done with the Bible.
2. Input that into one column in Excel.
3. Create relevant 'Categories' in the columns.
4. Do a word 'search' of critical words and concepts, mark them across the relevant categories.
5. Do a count of each category.
6. Like as in a "Word Cloud" those categories with the highest number are likely the main content and theme of the book.
7. Organize the categories into themes.
8. Based on what is read, estimate weightages for each category. For example I would put a high weightage for verses in the Mathew 5-7 re 'love all, even enemies' 'give the other cheek' John 3:16 and others.

For Christianity, what is the main doctrines are only from the Gospels that represent 'Christianity' proper; the OT, Acts, and Epistles are merely appendices to 'Christianity-proper'.

OK, it looks silly without the nuances which I had omitted which I should have done.

There are two senses of 'what is object' and 'objectivity', i.e.
viewtopic.php?f=8&t=39326

'Objective' [& object] is a very loose term but most of the moral fact deniers [PH & gang] are stuck with a dogmatic view of 'what is objective' within the Philosophical Realism perspective;

There are Two Senses of Objective: i.e.
  • 1. Objectivity [& object] in the Philosophical Realism [PR] Sense
    2. Objectivity [object] in the FSK Sense
As such, what I am claiming is there is objectivity [FSK sense] without object in the PR sense: ; there is objectivity [FSK sense] with object in the PR sense

Two Senses of 'Objective' [also object]
Your pushing nonsense,
