You did say that moral agreement is just what's fashionable, for instance.
I can't be bothered going and digging up all the quotes of you saying the things I said that you said. I'm not strawmanning you. But you *are* begging the question a lot.
Quote:I'm saying that there's no agreement. Historically, spatially, and culturally, people have believed that wildly different things were moral. Just like the drunken archer, whose scatter of arrows are not in agreement.
Obviously sometimes people agree on morality. So there is some agreement. You're just discounting it and saying "That doesn't count." What is the actual argument for any apparent agreement not being real agreement? Why is it just what's fashionable?
