Unlike Moral Non-Cognitivism, Moral Error Theory recognizes that people intend to make fact claims when making moral propositions (Such as "murder is evil"). Moral Error Theory only claims that those fact claims are in error for one or more reasons. However, like Non-cognitivists error-theorists also rely on certain semantic claims about what people mean by moral propositions that don't hold up in practice, and suffer from other underlying theoretical problems and burden-of-proof issues.
