I didn't say it was "multiculturalism." We need shared values. Free speech, for example, is non-negotiable.

free speech is something everyone should have, and not just people with your "shared" views.

You talk about objective truth of right and wrong (less suffering vs. more) like facts of physics waiting to be discovered,

but how can that be consistent with your general existentialist views? Why would there be human-centric morals built into a

random universe? Seems like human exceptionalism in otherwise science-driven view. Pragmatically useful yes but is it *true*?

I think Sam's example of "health" lacking the same constant philosophical scrutiny applies perfectly here.
-
Absolutely. I just want to hear it made explicit if in fact he believes there is no intrinsic morality
