A Mathematical Cosmologist Reflects on Deep Ethics: Reflections on Values, Ethics, and Morality

This paper argues in favour of moral realism, and hence distinguishes ethics (socially determined ideas of good and bad) from morality (eternal and unchanging standards of what is in fact good and bad). Morality cannot be determined by any argument based in scientific understandings, for it is of a...

520 |a This paper argues in favour of moral realism, and hence distinguishes ethics (socially determined ideas of good and bad) from morality (eternal and unchanging standards of what is in fact good and bad). Morality cannot be determined by any argument based in scientific understandings, for it is of a completely different nature; there is no scientific test for what is good or bad, because you can’t get an “ought” from an “is”. Ethical progress resides in a community’s ethics changing to become more like the nature of true morality, which I argue is of a kenotic (loving and self-sacrificial) nature.
