Moral Facts Are Objective
i hold that morality is objective in the sense of being universal. I am not a relativist. The fundamental moral facts do not change from culture to culture. Nor does the fact that one's culture condones something make that thing morally right. None of these specific moral judgments, nor these claims about the nature of moral judgments in general, can be true unless god exists. This theory is called divine command theory. If god turned out not to exists, then slavery would be ok, there'd be nothing wrong with torture. What could possibly make some one believe that?
