I doubt there is any since science does not, for the most part, believe in absolutes but mere situational ethics.dragon said:anyone know of any psychological studies on absolute morality?
Well perhaps one day I will check that out.Sara929 said:I believe Geisler has an excellent paper with regards to philosophicall studies on absolute morality. Not quite the same thing though.
i know i read some on toddlers being disturbed by death/harming of others (basic understanding of right/wrong)--just can't find them.
Brutus/HisCatalyst said:There is a very simple way to disprove this idea.
Person one: You murdered that is wrong
Person two: The murder is only wrong in you're eyes because there is no absolute morality
person one: Then what makes your reason as an absolute?
There is a Moral absolute. Final

Brutus says: Opinion hindges on the argument of absolute truth, so absolute morality would be defined by the absolute truth, which there must be.
still proves little except that there is a natural tendency for compassion.
isn't having a natural tendency for compassion the same as having absolute moral understanding?
i don't remember anything about the study regarding title, author of article...i just thought someone on this site would have run across similar studies that i could then look up to find this one.
children are also prone to fighting, so does that natural tendency also constitute a moral absolute?
