===Moral nihilism=== [[Moral nihilism|Moral nihilists]] maintain that there are no such entities as objective values or objective moral facts. Proponents of [[Science of morality|moral science]] like Ronald A. Lindsay have counter-argued that their way of understanding "morality" as a practical enterprise is the way we ought to have understood it in the first place. He holds the position that the alternative seems to be the elaborate philosophical reduction of the word "moral" into a vacuous, useless term.<ref name=Ron>[http://www.centerforinquiry.net/centerstage/episodes/episode_24_bioethics_and_public_policy_part_1 Center Stage | Episode 24 β Bioethics and Public Policy, Part 1]. Center for Inquiry (2010-04-12). Retrieved on 2011-04-30.</ref> Lindsay adds that it is important to reclaim the specific word "morality" because of the connotations it holds with many individuals.
