Is Absolute Moral Truth Possible in a Diverse World?

In our increasingly connected yet divided world, the question of moral relativism versus universal ethical principles becomes more pressing. Can we identify moral truths that transcend cultural boundaries, or are all ethical systems inherently relative to their cultural context?

This philosophical debate has real-world implications for global cooperation, human rights, and social justice. How do we balance respect for cultural diversity with the need for shared ethical foundations?

Consider these perspectives:

• Cultural relativism and its limitations
• Universal human rights as moral absolutes
• The role of reason vs. emotion in moral judgment
• Practical implications for global governance
