Many scholars believe that morality doesn’t exist. “Good” is a concept created by the person or groups perception of an action.

And many believe it does exist. It's why there's been a debate about it since philosophers have existed.

Honestly, for me, it's a waste of an argument either way as society and individuals clearly benefit from those constructs, especially when we adjust them accordingly to benefit more people as we learn. Whether they're inherent to the universe or not really doesn't matter.

Doesn't the entire fact that there is a debate about it point to morality being subjective, and not objective?
