LINGUISTICS
a word or expression used to describe or identify something.
Is good identifying something objective or subjective?
Before you answer, think of my pizza example, Good there is a descriptor of something subjective, my personal taste. Don't make the mistake of my Pizza Taste realist, and try and say it's descriptor of the scientific facts about the pizza.
By process of elimination. If objective goodness exists, and as I've shown it can't be reduced to any scientific/natural fact about x, then it's existence is non-natural.
Instead of hitting the Reply button straight away, can you please take the time to demonstrate how you eliminated naturalistic explanations for morality? All I keep seeing is you saying "X is not in Y, therefore X is in not Y", but you've not shown how "X is not in Y".
@Belaqua, maybe you can jump in here (when you can) and explain on his behalf?
I've eliminated all the naturalistic explanations for objective goodness, that have been offered here, (objective being a keyword). By demonstrating that every attempt to locate objective goodness within scientific/natural facts of x, are false. That there is no property we can call objective goodness that can be located in any scientific/natural fact.
You agree right? That there is no scientific or natural property of Goodness that can be located with any scientific/natural facts about x?
If Objective Goodness and Badness do exist, but they're not located in any scientific/natural fact about x. Where else could they be located expect in something non-natural?
