re: A fact worth remembering: Those who don't believe in God argue against absolutes

quote:

---

there are those who believe that objectivity requires a natural, or non-human origin

in regards to morality, yes. that is correct. but that does not refer to everything. cartesian rationality for example does not require a deity to arrive at an objective truth on a proximate level or in a phenomenal sense. at an ultimate or noumenal level, sure, the truth wouldn't exist without the uncaused cause

---

objectivity is defined by the consensus of whatever society is being analyzed

yeah that's silly nonsense and i can't believe people fell for that in school.
