Why does the theory make sense

Reference no: EM133413496

Question: Ethical relativism states that (1) there are no universal values, and (2) each culture is morally right in its own way. It doesn't say that each individual is right! Just that every culture sets its own values, and they have a right to do that. That means we need to step back and refrain from judging the values of another culture--but it also means we can't criticize any culture for doing anything we disapprove of, even if it is harmful to innocent people. At first glance it sounds like a really good theory--but then we begin to detect problems. In your view, does the theory make sense? Why or why not?
