...morality is an objective feature of the universe...
Fascinating. I still don’t understand in what sense this could be true, except maybe the way I tried to interpret EY here and here. But those comments simply got downvoted without any explanation or attempt to correct me, therefore I can’t draw any particular conclusion from those downvotes.
You could argue that morality (what is right?) is human and other species will agree that from a human perspective what is moral is right is right is moral. Although I would agree, I don’t understand how such a confusing use of terms is helpful.
Morality is just a specific set of terminal values. It’s an objective feature of the universe because… humans have those terminal values. You can look inside the heads of humans and discover them. “Should,” “right,” and “moral,” in EY’s terms, are just being used as a rigid designators to refer to those specific values.
I’m not sure I understand the distinction between “right” and “moral” in your comment.
