What is a person's objective value? How does it exist? Do you know it exists? If not, why do you think people assume it exists?
And remember your perception of yourself Jenny A and I agreed is not what determines objective value.
How are you measuring this value?
I'm not measuring much like I'm not measuring the moon when I see (have no idea how big it is unless I read it somewhere and even then have no idea). However I can perceive that I have objective value. It's more like a sort of scent of that value I have but I don't know it. That said knowing I am not the one who determines my value/worth, then something else is has to explain where I get my objective value from.
Like Jenny A said, if put to the test of subjective beings, these things value/worth/beauty/justice/goodness all can't be objective. So you tell me, how do you think you have this value?
Jenny A said she didn't. I think she believes in subjective value. But we will see if that is an oxymoron without belief in objective value.
