Do you think people should be treated with respect? Do you think there should be consideration for your condition so you are not exempt from certain events, activities, opportunities?

These are matters of ideology. If you say yes to it, it is ideological in the same way when you say no to it. There is no inherent objective truth to these value questions.

Same for the economy. It doesn't matter if you think that growth should be the main objective, or that equal opportunity should be the focus or sustainability or other things. You will have to make a value judgement and the sum of these values represent your ideology.

There is no inherent objective truth to these value questions.

I disagree. These values are based on objective observations.

Objective observations made by what apparatus?

An absolute God?

The idea that objectivity requires a God figure would seem to me to be Berkeleyan idealism.
