Does the existence of many and conflicting moral viewpoints mean that, logically, there are no answers to moral questions? Explain your answer using philosophical reasoning and the terminology of logic.

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The existence of many and conflicting moral viewpoints means that, logically, there are no answers to moral questions but the individual has to develop their own moral concepts that are going to be applied when it decides on an ethical issue.

Ethics studies the moral acts of human beings. Morals study the decisions that stem from the conscience. So there is no logic or reasoning because every individual has its set of moral rules or standards, depending on its culture, race, ethnicity, values, or traditions.  So when the individual is about to make a decision, he or she is aware that there is going to be consequences from that decision and the individual has to live by those consequences.
