That's only true for factual statements. It's perfectly possible to reach different conclusion starting from different moral premises.

- Houshalter 13y agoThen there is still only one truth and they can still come to an agreement on statements like "gun control is good if your goal is to reduce homicide rates" or "gun control is bad if your goal is to maximize personal freedom", etc. Then it's not a matter of disagreement or coming to different conclusions, it's just having different values.
- adigar 13y agoI think this works better. As someone said above, it comes down to trade offs. Arguing a point with a specific goal to work towards leads to better discussions than trying to answer questions like: "is x good or bad?"
