@Dustandashes

you sure you are not refering to absolute morality?
Moral absolutism is an ethical view that particular actions are intrinsically right or wrong. Stealing, for instance, might be considered to be always immoral, even if done for the well-being of others, and even if it does in the end promote such a good.

@TheRealNihilist

maybe. We'll see. I don't mind tackling the unpopular side.

@Wrick-It-Ralph

Sheesh. Good luck. I got Sparrow winning this won.

@Dustandashes

you and me would ultimately agree on morality besides maybe particularism and the source of the objectivity if that makes sense

-->
@Dustandashes

So I'm not sure if you could really take Con side unless you took some weird skeptical argument because you can't argue for subjective morals

-->
@Dustandashes

Well, When I say Objective morality, I mean it's objective in that situation because I believe in Moral Particularism. But that wouldn't really apply to this debate because I still think the situation itself is "absolutely moral or immoral" assuming we know all of the moral variables.

@Wrick-It-Ralph

Are you arguing for or against objective morality? I am in favor of objective morality (there is absolute right and absolute wrong) but I wasn't sure if you are in favor of this as well, since I saw you debating moral particularism
