@Leaf Supremacist they'll never notice
it creates a UNIVERSAL AXIOM of morality
Kant doesn't claim this as objective
knowledge of morality is not a priori
WHICH would lead us down a whole 'nother rabbithole
but try to grasp these basics first.
Alright but why is the dichotomy between objective and subjective morality incorrect?
because morality is metaphysics
no serious philosopher makes claims for objective morality
he might appeal to G-d as the foundation for his deontological system
but the system is still metaphysics built on scripture (which has been done many times during the Scholastic period)
Yeah but that doesn't explain why there isn't a dichotomy between the subjective and objective bases of morality.
There absolutely is.
there is no such dichotomy
That's why everyone but you was able to grasp the question.
:(
that's because the internet spreads bad information
I like you better when you're being a turboautist.
the greatest philosophers of Christian ethics
never claimed "objective morality"
they raelised the issue of morality is far more complex than that petty distinction
maybe you should actually read the Thomists
before you go spouting off this utter tripe
objective morality is unknowable and unprovable, but it exists
and utilitarianism has more in common with Kantian deontology than relativism
because utilitarians make a universalist argument much like Kant did
the important distinction is deontological/consequential
relativism is another camp entirely
that claims ethics are culturally bound
I'm afraid no one cares for your pedantism.
this is not pedantic
well, hes finally making positive claims so i am at least marginally more interested

if you want to engage in a serious philosophical discussion with anyone who knows their way around these concepts
you have to understand them and how to apply them.
Noooooooo
@Jay1532 That's a Kantian argument
the noumenal exists but it is not accessible to us
@Deleted User get the nignog back
