There is no such thing as an 'objective moral statement'.
There you go, job done.
No need to thank me.
I mean there may be, if you consider ethics as metaphysics. There is a fact of the matter of what the best action to take is. We may not know it, but in fact there is a "best course of action".
Also hiya, long time no see! I don't know if you remember me, I stopped trolling TTA 5 years ago. I'm so sad to see all of those old threads gone. Sorry I was such a pain- I tried to be at least a little entertaining to make up for it!
Khem was referring to morals not ethics. A moral is first-person by definition.
If we may not know it then no one can make statements other than "Nobody knows / only the gods know..." etc.
Yeah hiya. I remember you as a creative troll. Personally I saw no need to ban you until you started creating cock pimples. Chew toys were never a problem but when one moves into 'dick territory'... ah well.
