Answer.
Answer.
Oh sorry. I meant to say permanence, not impermanence.
But that's exactly what you cannot offer - something better. On your view you take the relative morality of an evolved species of social primates from a particular culture from the Iron age, and then assert that it's universal, permanent, and eternal. That's not a view any intelligent person is going to take seriously because you have no intellectual grounding for your views, they are totally incoherent or circular.
No, it means much more. That there is a universal and certain moral goal to move towards. That there is a moral purpose for man, that we can actually move from worse to better because there is a better to be conformed to. And if my view is circular so is yours - so why take your views seriously? Stop being hypocritical.
