Ethics Are Not Relative W.T. Stace argues in favour of ethical absolutism - the principle that ethics are not relative. I will be arguing that this is indeed the case: ethics are not relative; morality is an absolute that, no matter how much it is meddled with to suit the needs of someone, will not change.
Ethics is the study of a way of life and its values, including a system of general moral principles and the conception of morality and its foundations. Ethical relativism states that ethics are a matter of cultural norms, while ethical absolutism states that there is one set moral standard. Truth may be difficult to find, but that sole fact is not proof of its absence. Ethics do not change, even if society has not agreed upon
