Facts are always changing. The more people look at them, the more they change. Dark Matter did not even exist as a concept 30 years ago. However, the more that there is a group of brainy types looking at things, the more the things change.
The world is foam....
...and our intelligence, which tries to make the best of it that we can.
It is quantum foam and the living who structure lives on this reality.
There are no immortal facts, no absolute morality.
If you want Absolute Morality, you already have it in the Golden Rule. Since the Golden Rule is more often transgressed than obeyed, anybody who wants to assert that there is an Absolute Morality in the Universe seems to miss the point that such morality is not morally compelling.
(So if there is an Absolute Morality, it is more often noticed in the breech than in the observance. What kind of "Absolute" is that? It's as if Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation came with a rain check for those days when the graviton supply truck was held up by traffic.
Sorry. It seems that Ethics is the only science or philosophy that has "laws" at which we can comfortably thumb our noses at.
What rubbish.)
