No, after questioning people like yourself I understand exactly how atheists like yourself can be realist.
By defining moral statements like stealing as bad as descriptive rather than normative.
By elevating subjective good, to an objective good, by developing a measurable criteria for it. This as you indicated can be done for any subjective good, like good pizza.
By resolving the is/ought dilemma, by taking the ought out, and forming a morality of is.
See I understand it. I think it’s all silly, but I understand it nonetheless.
You might articulate it in a far more convoluted way, that I stated simply here, but it’s all the same.
- and all of that, is just you refusing to unclog your ears even once.
Called it from the getgo, didn’t I.
