Moral Development According to Life Span (2006)‚ moral development requires a complex interweaving of emotions‚ cognitions‚ and behaviors (Broderick & Blewitt‚ 2006‚ p. 221).

Moral Realism In this paper‚ I examine the connection between judgments of fact and moral judgments in an attempt to discern whether moral judgments are simply a subset of judgments of fact. I will look mostly at an argument posed by many moral realists that takes moral facts to be “supervenient natural facts which are independent of our theorizing about them”1 and in which moral judgments are determined by objective facts which relate to human flourishing or pleasure and pain. I will also‚ though
