Answer Happy

Part I: Covering week 4.1 readings. Answer this question completely. 1. People have different moral beliefs and different moral values. Imagine you are debating the morality of a particular action or case with your friend, and you and your friend have different beliefs about the morality of the case or action. (1a.) Imagine your friend says to you "well, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, so it's fine if we have different moral values and make different moral judgements, there is no right or wrong answer about what is moral". By putting together all you have read about moral relativism this week, explain what is problematic about your friend's statement. (1b.) Then, using the arguments made by Rachels in "The Challenge of Cultural Relativism", explain why the fact that people have different moral values does not necessarily mean that there are no objective moral truths.
