Objective morality

Thus, integrity is not a necessary characteristic.
How can the All not have internal consistency? Don’t the rules of logic apply everywhere at all times. The operations of physical reality work consistently throughout the whole physical universe. Mathematics remains eternally valid and produces consistent results.

You see that because you are only considering local events. Particular circumstances lack the balance of physical universe as a whole, because they are not complete.

Having a map is not a guarantee of reaching your destination. Even Aristotle said as much in his ‘Ethics’. He said that in addition to personal virtue you also need a bit of luck. A moral standard is a guide, nothing more.
