I think the diversity of
moral beliefs around the world matters for several reasons:
- Once we see how different people evaluate the same situation or
action, we can no longer assume that our evaluation is
obvious.
- Furthermore, we can no longer assume that our evaluation is the correct one.
- And finally, as you philosophers would put it, the differences
lead us to ask what it means for an evaluation to be 'correct.' Do we know
the answer to that one?
