Morality: Pluralism, Realism, Nihilism, and God, Version 4

Version 4 of the document. Still incomplete, in draft form.

Unfortunately, for some reason I can no longer update this post using the blogger program. Luckily, I can get around this problem by posting any modifications as PDFs. So the PDF containing my post is given here. Enjoy. [And thanks to Rayndeon for advising that I to do this.]. I think this Microsoft Word version of the document should work. It should make navigating the document easier since, for example, you can double-click the number for an endnote to jump to that endnote and to jump back to where that endnote was mentioned in the text.

I'm giving this now because some people wanted some parts of this, especially the portions on abiogenesis. For those of who are are here for stuff on abiogenesis, skip to endnote 29, which goes from pages 560 to 571. The references for this are before the endnotes and go from pages 464 to 499. The rest of this paper includes a lot of stuff that's likely completely unrelated to what you are interested in.

The abridged argument map which summarizes each section's argument is given here. This argument map contains none of the abiogenesis points, since abiogenesis was discussed in an endnote and the argument map does not conver endnotes.

The abridged map is a bit outdated and the post is incomplete, much of it still in stream-of-consciousness form. It's also long. Very long. Treat as a working draft. I expect to be working on this for at least the rest of the year, and will incorporate further rebuttals to arguments against moral naturalism as time goes on.
