Objections
- "instinct" - the natural law isn't just our "herd instinct" shown by two key areas:
- two instincts occur at the same time but something insists on choosing one over the other. That "something" is the natural law
- there is not a single right instinct all the time, much like there's not an "always right" note on the piano
- setting up one instinct over all others is a surefire way to fall into despair and become "a devil"
- Social convention - the natural law is more like mathematics than rules of the road
- there's not a great deal of difference between cultures and civilizations' morality
- there is clearly an arbiter we appeal to when judging between two groups morality. It is clear that one morality is truer than another (Christian vs. Nazism). There must be a "real right"
