Abstract

The article focuses on moral error theory, which claims that no moral claims are true, and all are therefore mistaken. Topics include the challenge presented by moral error theory, responses to this challenge, such as debunking arguments and insulationist approaches, and an argument that other metaethical theories also have troubling consequences for moral judgment.
