    You hear it argued in religious groups. "God gave us meat to eat so that is a reason to consume it" Another common one is something of the lines of "it is thanksgiving tradition to eat turkey" Edit: expanded my answer/ example

      Oh, I hadn't heard it put that way. Didn't come up around a lot of religion.

      Did anyone say specifically that culture dictates morality? I don't see how a deity's instructions are similar to a societal convention.
