I think we assume that most people will intuitively understand most ethical truths, but not that everyone must know them all. -yk

We should not make such an assumption. Ethical truth exists but there is no way that everyone can be aware of it, due to the great variety of ethical beliefs. It is our ethical obligation to reason with people to help them discover ,own thier terms, ethical truths.
