Philosophy / Re: Why should I accept natural law theory?

You wrote:  "When I say things like good, I am appealing to my intuitive sense of what good is."

Which is a way to say 'natural law' when you don't want to say 'natural law'.

Whether sex for a married couple is "good" is one question.  Whether or not contraception is "good" is a different question.

Because you will have to assume natual law in order to deny it.  As soon as you start saying words like "good" or "purpose" or whatever other terms you're going to use to describe the . . . . "goal" (there's another one.  See you can't escape) . . .. of ethics, you are assuming natural law.

What were you referring to when you said "good"?

When legislators make laws, what do they base them on, nothing?
