Most forms of cognitivism hold that some such propositions are true (including moral realism and ethical subjectivism), as opposed to error theory, which asserts that all are erroneous. Error theory, another form of moral anti-realism, holds that although ethical claims do express propositions, all such propositions are false. Non-cognitivist theories hold that ethical sentences are neither true nor false because they do not express genuine propositions. Yet another way of categorizing meta-ethical theories is to distinguish between centralist and non-centralist moral theories. Meta-ethical relativists, in general, believe that the descriptive properties of terms such as "good", "bad", "right", and "wrong" do not stand subject to universal truth conditions, but only to societal convention and personal preference. Ethical intuitionism is the view according to which some moral truths can be known without inference.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-1540.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-1540.txt
