Question

one of the fundamental problems associated with adopting a position of subjective relativism is that
a) it implies that interpersonal moral disagreements are the basis for ethical behavior.
b) it insists that every action be categorized as either right or wrong in an objective sense.
c) it argues that there is no moral infallibility.
d) it is a difficult view to hold consistently.

Explanation:

Subjective relativism holds that moral truths are entirely dependent on an individual's personal beliefs. A core critique is that consistently upholding this view is impractical: for example, if one claims their moral stance is only true for themselves, they cannot meaningfully critique others' moral choices, but people often do make such judgments, creating a contradiction. Option a is incorrect because subjective relativism does not frame disagreements as the basis for ethics. Option b is wrong because it describes objective morality, the opposite of subjective relativism. Option c is incorrect as subjective relativism can lead to the idea of individual moral infallibility, not reject it.

Answer:

d) it is a difficult view to hold consistently.
