Ethical Absolutism

Ethical absolutism is the belief that there are universal moral principles that apply to all people, regardless of culture, context, or situation. According to this view, certain actions are objectively right or wrong, and these moral truths do not change over time or differ from one society to another. For example, actions like murder or theft would be considered wrong in every context. This perspective contrasts with ethical relativism, which holds that moral values are shaped by cultural or individual circumstances.
