What is the position of ethical absolutism with regard to moral values?
How does ethical absolutism refute ethical subjectivism?
- Ethical absolutism: The view that at least some moral values are universal and apply to all individuals and cultures in every time period.
- Ethical absolutism doesn't dispute the descriptive facts of cultural variation in moral values: It's in the interpretation of this data where the conflict lies.
- The normative conclusion that there are no absolute moral values that can be applied to all cultures commits the naturalistic fallacy: Simply describing a situation provides no evidence for concluding that this is the way things should be.
- While no system of moral values has yet to be universally accepted, that does not mean that such a system could not exist and be accepted at some point in the future.
