But if moral is defined as "better well being" and "less suffering" then there are factual matters about that.
So when you say it's a choice for a specific "moral" goal, what do you mean by "moral" goal if you don't define moral as above?
Harris also argues that science has to appeal to specific values or "goals" in order for science to be done too.
Is "right" and "wrong" in the natural world? The beliefs people have about morality are in them and they are part of the natural world. So how are there concerns or values not a matter of the natural world and not a matter of fact about what is "good" and "bad" for them and others?
