Few cultural lies are more pervasive — or more internally contradictory — than moral relativism, and this chapter gives us both the diagnosis and the antidote.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Ferrer describes moral relativism as the belief that moral truth is personal and subjective — 'what's true for you may not be true for me.' Where have you heard your children (or yourself) use this kind of language, even unknowingly?
2.The chapter points out a key self-defeating feature of moral relativism: the person who says 'you shouldn't impose your morality on others' is imposing a moral claim. Have you ever used this 'the claim refutes itself' argument in a conversation? How was it received?
3.The authors observe that relativism typically functions selectively — most people who claim to be relativists still believe some things are objectively wrong (racism, child abuse, etc.). What does this reveal about the actual moral intuitions built into human beings, and how does Romans 1 speak to that?
