Last class we talked about realism vs. idealism. I consider myself an idealist; however, I think this binary is lacking in the complexity that exists in real life. While I believe there is a G-d, I do not think They have created ideals for worldly creations (e.g. cars, houses, etc). In this sense, human creations are only capable of being preferred over others, not ideal. I furthermore believe that the idea that religion (even monotheistic religion) is inherently tied to being idealistic. One can strive to be like G-d in a moral sense, aiming for their best understanding of what G-d wants, yet one can never truly know what this ideal is. I also believe that the existence of a G-d does not necessarily discount moral relativism.
