Pojman's Arguments Against Conventionalism
- If relativism is right, then criticism of those outside our 
culture is impossible. (IP3 493b)
 - If relativism is right, then moral reformers are always wrong. 
(IP3 493b)
 - "Conventionalist relativism seems to reduce to subjectivism.  And 
subjectivism leads ... to the demise 
of morality altogether." (IP3 
494b)
