A carpenter's square measures objective physical geometry, which anyone (including non carpenters) can test against 90 degrees. A moral square doesn't measure physical geometry, it measures a chosen value system. If two people hold moral squares that differ by even 1 degree, over time they build completely different lives and societies while both insisting their square is true norma. Calling a chosen value standard a square sounds objective, but it switches a physical measurement system for a personal preference system, which inevitable leads to a circular argument situation. "}
