<<it looks like you are basing your position of “it IS” upon what others have said. I see this as at least a meme aspect of intellection.
I find this quite different from a direct apprehension of “it IS” which is what I would expect if you were sharing what you base your view of the ‘innate’ aspect of ethics upon. >> If I understand you correctly, there are indeed two different aspects to this question. I base my own morality on my own intuition, and this would probably be true no matter what anyone else in the world did, or what the scientists say. However, having data from others, such as scientists, it seems clear that we all share pretty much the same innate moral sense, which suggests that relying on this is a safe way to construct a society. Many of the religious folk claim that if we each looked inside ourselves for our own morality, we'd all end up with different moral codes. The research of scientists suggests this isn't so. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Memphis Freethought Alliance" group.
