Caring is subjective being a good dad a good husband are not. Now if one subscribes to morality in which right and wrong are based on doing things they cared about, you can call that subjective. But that’s not the case here.
Quote:You’re just babbling about how everyone else’s whatever is subjective and yours is true.
Everyone else including yourself has indicated that they don’t see moral oughts as objective truth, unlike good and bad.
I indicated that I do.
Quote:You see, just because you don’t care about my wallet, doesn’t mean that my oughts, or grands oughts, aren’t true either. You don’t have to care about a wallet for the things he described to happen.
What are you suggesting here? Are you now indicating that moral oughts are objective truths as well, like good and bad are?
You might recognize that you have oughts, but you don’t see them as objective truths, according to your own words.
