Are the MORALS THEMSELVES, the specific moral ideas, represented in the objective world beyond the subjective agent, in things or their properties? That's it. Is there something about any object or situation which represents a right or a wrong, without the evaluation of that agent?I think that they are..but hey, maybe...there's no such thing as "the world"..?
Quote:I've literally never argued that there aren't mind independent facts which support ought positions, because I was never talking about that. I've always, from the start, been talking about where those ought positions originally come from. Why are there ought positions at all, rather than a lack of them?Then you've literally never argued against moral realism, so why do you think that you have?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
