(May 25, 2021 at 2:58 pm)The Grand Nudger Wrote: It doesn't follow - but it's also not relativism.  What would follow, and actually be relativism, would be something like

1. Different cultures have different moral codes
2. Therefore, the true set of moral assertions varies from culture to culture.

That doesn't follow unless you take the word "true" out.
