[lit-ideas] Re: Univocal philosophy as the value of transcendental claims?

Phil just wrote, at the end of a reply to John (he wrote it, of course, as I was busy writing my reply to both of them) 


This is analogous to everything I have been saying about morality.
What counts as theft will differ over time and cultures, but there is
at least one thing that can be said about every case of theft, about
what makes stealing wrong, namely the imperative "Don't".
To which I, as a disappointed reader of Prichard's 'Does Moral Philosophy Rest on a Mistake?' am forced to reply that to say x is wrong in every case is to say that we are told by the Daughter of the Voice of God, or whomever not to do it, is equally disappointing.
