It didn’t seem directly relevant to TimS’s comment. That said, it would be a remarkable coincidence if a framework reliably motivated right action without corresponding to reality.
Agreed that if the only metric for right action is whether the action is motivated by my framework, then it’s not a coincidence at all that my framework motivates right action. It’s also true that if I know of no metric at all for right action, then I can’t know whether a framework reliably motivates it.
That in a marriage, the natural and desirable order of things is that man shall be the absolute ruler and woman the slave, and that any other arrangement is a futile struggle against our fundamental biological nature that if pursued will bring only doom and destruction?

Depends, how are you judging which action is “right”, do you have any way to judge independent of the framework?
A lot of religions motivate a lot of right actions. They motivate even more if you let a religion judge the rightness of the action it motivates.
