This past weekend I had the opportunity to engage some ‘secular’ (by this I don’t mean non-Christian) friends around a variety of social and moral issues. As we dialogued it became increasingly aware to me that our presuppositions regarding morality were dichotomous. The result: we agreed to disagree.
Subsequent to that conversation I find myself reflecting on one of my own presuppositions viz. objective morality. In my thinking it seems impossible to make any moral judgements without some kind of objective morality. Moreover, I find myself exploring ideas and methods by which to articulate the need for an objective morality.
Do you think it is possible for human society to function without a framework of morality? On what foundation can/does one build a moral framework?
