In cases where significant moral principles conflict, one possible way to resolve the conflict is if one of them is absolute and always overrides the others. Are there any such absolutes? Dr. Perry shows why religion is not helpful in that regard, and why it makes more sense to consider a cluster of prima facie moral principles, rather than any absolutes.
