And just because goodness depends on minds evaluating it, it doesn't mean objective goodness doesn't exist.
I would argue our relative understanding of goodness varies in ranks and praise, because objective goodness exists. Where it not that objective goodness exist, there would be no ranks to relative goodness, it would all be the same, and all meaningless.
And per the argument I am showing, goodness to be not arbitrary, it must eternal.
So do you believe goodness is arbitrary? That greatness is arbitrary?
No, objective goodness is delusional.G oodness itself is not a delusion. Goodness is a set of rules a society agrees to follow for their benefit.
The reason objective goodness doesn't exist for the same reason objective beauty doesn't exist. What is beautiful to one isn't necessarily to the other. If there was some objective good, then everyone would be able to agree on what is good. However, you have disagreements all the time for even the simplest of things.
