For example, a lot of people claim to hold to some other theory of truth besides the correspondence theory. But in their every day lives, they use the word "true" just like the rest of us.

The argument can only convince them if they believe it to be true. If you can not convince them that they actually believe in objective moral values, then your argument fails since it hinges on what they believe.daleliophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14533665826521400068noreply@blogger.com
