Argument from noncognitivism

They aren't inherently wrong, because it's a meaningless phrase. Actions don't have "wrong points" floating around them. I can't measure them objectively like I can the mass of an object. I can only compare them to what I want to happen, and don't want to happen.

Things move from one state to another. Whether that state is better or worse is entirely a matter of opinion and perspective.

We generally agree on things, as a result of evolution. That's convenient, but it's not proof of anything.

thats true what is considered right in one culture is often seen as very wrong in another culture , but people within a certain culture generally agree with eachother about what is right and wrong an unspoken social contract and agreement about right and wrong among members of the society and those who go against that are shunned in some way if not it would be chaos (anarchy not the right word i meant chaos : disorganization) there must be social agreement . that doesnt make it a universal fact and truth its just truth within that society . lol or i could be totally not understanding what noncognition is Cool
Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today   FSM Grin   Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you will join us And the world will be as one  - John Lennon

The easy confidence with which I know another man's religion is folly teaches me to suspect that my own is also  - Mark Twain
