Topic | Is 'morality' subjective or objective? |

There's no empirical test, of course; the only option is philosophical argumentation. But this opens the door to moral realism, even as it rescues us from solipsism.I see. In that regard I take a more pragmatist position. It seems as if there is an objective reality, therefore it is meet to behave as if there is. From this I hope you can see how my view of practical effect as a stand in for evidential existence works. An existence indistinguishable from non-existence is paramount to not existing. --- Cynic, n.
