Editorial note: This essay was written entirely by Opus 4.6, but it was very heavily edited by me.

Sheesh this went deep. I especially liked the bridge metaphor.

"Moral truth is there" seems like a very strong assertion. Comparing moral reality to mathematical reality seems beyond bizarre.

So I just wasted 5 precious minutes skimming libertarian propaganda clothed in Christian principles... good luck with your technocratic solutions to societal and political problems

I’m not designing any of this. I am just observing. It is being designed and built by godless people who are at least intelligent enough to recognize truth when they are faced with it.

Perhaps, but I don’t see any other way around it. There is definitely a base moral layer to reality that seems unavoidable to me.

The exact semantics vary, but that doesn’t negate the reality of that layer.
