The principles of Christianity not only imply that, they clearly spell it out: “If you want to be perfect, then go and sell your possessions and give the money to the poor”, and yet Christianity was uncontroversial in the West for centuries, and the current secular “common sense” morality hasn’t diverged particularly far. EAs just take ostensibly common sense principles far too seriously compared to the unspoken social consensus, in a way that’s cringe for normal people. Critics don’t really have a principled response to the core EA ideas either, but they don’t want to appear morally delinquent, so they generally try to dismiss EAs without seriously engaging.
