One cause of this confusion is moral relativism, a widespread view that standards vary according to personal or cultural preferences. Imagine what would happen if pilots were to navigate, not by fixed reference points, but by beacons that moved about unpredictably and sometimes disappeared altogether!
इस उलझन की एक वजह यह है कि आदर्श बदलते रहते हैं, यानी ज़्यादातर लोगों का मानना है कि हर व्यक्‍ति और समाज को यह फैसला करना है कि अच्छा क्या है और बुरा क्या ।
