Intereresting theory and worth pondering. Moral questions can certainly only be answered individually as each individual has their own moral standard. Unless, of course, the moral standard is that of a culture, and then the standard would be set by majority opinion and actions.
When it comes to internet answers to morality questions, I would suggest that we need to look at the demographic of those answering. The question is most likely being answered by a younger (ie: more internet savvy) audience than what might be found in society. Also, since you don't know the personal moral standards of those answering, it is hard to judge if their own morality is a right fit for your own (the asker).
I try not to give 'pat' answers to any question I am answering, but then again, I also don't try to push my morals onto others....
Great question! Very thought provoking.
