Being wrong in the context of hedonism is easy. Anyone who accepts a different monistic theory does that. I'm going to call bullshit on your question-begging accusation. It's not bullshit because I'm not a hedonist.You can call it, but it;s accurate. If a person tells you that value is pleasure, pleasure cn indeed by assigned a value. To assert "but science an;t assing the value" is assuming that intitial point in your favor.

No. Is it for lack of trying? No. If scientists could prove moral realism, that would be their first order of business.A rolling non-sequitur...but depending on the specific concept of objective morality we have in mind...they -have-.
