Meta ethics - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Moral intuition varies from person to person
      - Personal bias
      - Cultural differences
        
        If morality is objective, some cultures must be objectively wrong as different cultures will hold different beliefs and intuition
- - - - Encourages individuals to transcend their own desires and adhere to God's higher moral authority
  - - - Is something good because God commands it, or does God command it because it is good?
        
        If the first is true morality becomes arbitrary as it depends on God rather than the inherent goodness of actions
        
        If the second is true, morality exists independent of God's commands so God's commands are not the source of authority at all (which is what DCT claims).
        
        Either way, God's commands can not be a flawless representation of morals posing a challenge to DCT
    - - Different translations etc - how can we truly be sure what God is thinking? There is still subjectivity
- - - - Morality is seen as a separate, non-physical realm
