fascinating! we find the objectively correct value system by "currently widespread agreement"! Good thing "the common view" is always correct. Hey, have there ever been any issues where there used to be "widespread agreement" and now there's disagreement, or even "widespread agreement" in the polar opposite direction?

I can think of several off the top of my head, but maybe you need to spend some more time thinking about the history of moral philosophy.

This is ridiculous to me and all you need to do is get a group of friends to honestly answer 10 trolley problems for you to see it like that also. It gets fragmented VERY quickly.

I think it depends on your friends, but that feels super cynical. Perspective is everything.
