Poll: What grounds objective moral truth?

January 1, 2013 By 3 Comments

Unknown-1Choose one option from this poll:

  1. The good is a construct of God, man or nature.
  2. God wills the good in accordance with his loving nature.
  3. Nothing, there are only constructs which do not obligate.

In other words:

What grounds objective moral truth (think “human rights”)? 
  1. The good is a construct of God, man or nature—the good is created (made up).
  2. God wills the good in accordance with his loving nature—the good is discovered.
  3. Nothing, there are only constructs which do not obligate—there is no good (neither).

created/discovered/neither — easy to memorize

Take the rest of the poll.

    Why isn’t both an option?

      Hi Jenny, just saw your question. Both is not an option, because it’s like saying a story is ‘both’ true ‘and’ made up.
