| | | |  Objectivism: Encyclopedia II - Moral objectivism - Moral objectivism and free willSemi-religious arguments for moral objectivism have to do with the relationship between free will, choice, and morals. Some have argued that without free will, the universe is deterministic and therefore morally uninteresting (i.e., if all moral choices and moral behavior are determined by outside forces, there can be no need for any person to ponder morality), though this would depend on whether free choice is required for an action to be 'moral'. If we believe in free will, it stands to reason that the universe allows moral behavior. From ...

| | | | Objectivism: Encyclopedia II - Moral objectivism - Criticism of moral objectivism A primary criticism of moral objectivism regards how we come to know what the 'objective' morals actually are. The authorities that are quoted as sources of objective morality are all subject to human interpretation, and multiple views abound on them. For morals to be truly objective, they would have to have a universally unquestioned source, interpretation and authority. Therefore, so critics say, there is no conceivable source of such morals, and none can be called 'objective'. So even if there are objective morals, there will never be universal agreement ...

| | | | Objectivism: Encyclopedia II - Moral objectivism - The origin of immorality Unlike moral relativism, proponents of moral objectivism face a unique challenge: explaining why people act immorally. To the moral relativist, the answer is simple: people behave differently because they hold different values, and those considered "immoral" are immoral only because their values differ from social consensus. Immorality is simply a result of varying codes of value.
Moral objectivists have provided different explanations as to why, if there is an objective moral code, people so often fall short of i ...

| | | | Objectivism: Encyclopedia II - Moral objectivism - Sources of objective morality Systems of objective morality are seen as proceeding from many sources, including:
The Divine, in the case of Religion.
Reason and the natural world, in the case of many secular philosophies, for example utilitarianism or the categorical imperative of Kant.
Reason and the divine in concert, as in the case of Thomism.
Moral objectivism - The Divine alone.
Many codes of objective morality hold that moral codes originat ...
