The Moral Intuition Inventory

The Prompt

Identify three moral convictions you hold with near-certainty (e.g., "torturing innocents for amusement is wrong"). For each, examine: Does this conviction feel like a discovery about the world (realism) or an expression of your deepest commitments (anti-realism)? Can you imagine a coherent culture that denies it? What would it take to change your mind? Record your findings and reflect on whether introspection can settle the realism question.

Completion Criteria

Three moral convictions examined from both realist and anti-realist perspectives, with honest reflection on whether each feels discovered or constructed, and a concluding assessment of the limits of introspection as evidence in metaethics.
