"اگر رفاه ما نه تنها برای خودمان بلکه برای دیگران نیز ارزشمند باشد آنگاه مفهوم اخلاق نمیتواند نسبی باشد"
— Sam Harris

Simplified Meaning:
When something is good for you and also good for others, then doing that thing isn't just based on personal opinion; it's a shared rule everyone can agree on. Think about helping someone in need. If you give food to a hungry person, it not only makes you feel good but also helps them survive. This action shows that caring for others is important for everyone, not just you. Therefore, the idea of what’s right or wrong isn’t just about what you like or think; it’s about what benefits and is valued by many people. This means that things we consider morally right, like kindness and generosity, are important to everyone and aren't just personal choices.
