10. According to Natural Law, ethics does not change human nature, not human culture. In order for ethics to be different, human nature would have to be different. Progress in natural law thinking means discovering new aspects of the natural law-e.g., that laborers in capitalist countries have economic rights, as the Church argued in the late 19th century. Progress does not mean that what was once right is now wrong, or vice versa, since that would be a contradiction.
