PH, you have often rely on Hume's "No Ought From Is" [NOFI] to insist that Morality cannot be objective because all moral elements are not matters of fact, and you often cite Hume's NOFI as your basis.
I have argued,
There are Two Senses of 'What is Fact'

Your sense of 'what is fact' is based on philosophical realism which is grounded on an illusion;

PH's Philosophical Realism is Illusory

On the other hand Hume's matter of fact is a sort of human-based FSK-ed fact;
see this thread;
Hume's matter of fact is empirically based;

As such, your claim that morality is not objective based on Hume's NOFI is invalid.
Your counter to the above?

Re: PH, You Cannot Rely on Hume No Ought From Is.
So, the important thing is defeating PH. At least a couple of links have unresponded to posts by other people, but the main reason to post is to get PH to say 'uncle.'
