Steve Shaw says: In moral choices, a lot of people are choosing what someone has told them is the moral choice.

I don't believe that's true. A moral choice is a choice between something that is harmful or not harmful, constructive or destructive, good and bad. Most of us adults are smart enough to figure these things out without having somebody tell us.

I suppose there are a few "sheep" who are dominated by external forces, but I think most adults do quite well making such choices by themselves.
