“moral compass” comes right from the Bible. Right and wrong are not subjective‚ they are not grey areas‚ and they are not up for debate. What God says is right is right‚ and what God says is wrong is wrong. This is why I absolutely detest the idea of Cultural Relativism.

Problem of Universals The Ontological problem has occupied many philosophers and intellectuals since the very beginning of human thought. What seems to be a simple and rather ridiculous question to the average person‚ ‘what exists?’ or ‘what is there?’ serves as the general question for the ontological problem. Almost everyone accepts the existence of physical objects‚ to which I will now refer as ‘particulars’. Actual pencils‚ buildings‚ cats‚ humans and planets are all examples of particulars
