Everyone has a criteria. They don't simply make up their value with total randomness. It's a struggling type choosing beliefs.
We have moral instincts to praise love. We appreciate it. But what is the foundational basis to the praise? Simply because we praise it, therefore it's praiseworthy? But we praise because we believe it's praiseworthy.
Our moral instinct is praise love. We evolved praising one another and loving one another.
Without belief in worth of humanity, we wouldn't have made it this far and evolved to what we are.
But is instinct beliefs justification?
