I think at this point in my life when the terms objective and subjective are used in a conversation I just agree to the words without having a full understanding of what was said. Can you eli5 on how to use objective vs subjective?
In: Other
Objective and subjective are two opposites meaning concrete or based in facts and fluid or changing. Facts are objective and unchanging, like the law of gravity, while opinions are subjective, like taste in food. These things change and are not definitive or set in stone.
Relative is related to subjective. Things that are relative shift based on the situation. Speed is relative between two moving objects, while a car may be traveling 30 mph, it may only be traveling 5 mph relative to another vehicle next to it.
Ethics and morality are the final two concepts. Ethics is a code of behavior that is meant to determine right and wrong and the best way to treat others. Morality is the act of being moral or following ethics. Morality is more of a personal system of belief.
