It is fascinating (and illustrative) that you are apparently unable to even imagine something that isn't moral relativism.
You are missing the point. What if everyone doesn't bring their own personal interpretation?
- notacoward 9y agoIt's equally fascinating that you call things moral relativism that aren't. Handy slur, isn't it? "Moral relativism" refers to the belief that morality depends on historical context. Somebody can believe that absolute right and wrong exists independent of that context, utterly rejecting relativism, without subjugating their own moral judgment to someone else's. They can be absolutely inflexible on matters of principle and on how they apply it to specific situations, without copying from someone else. It's called independence of thought and belief. It's called liberty, not relativism. Only sheep are otherwise.
