Ponder?……

“The question of whether something is good is an open question”

An interesting quote question the ethics of life. For the description of any natural property  pleasure that is assumed to be good can be meaningfully ended with the question…why is it good?. Not introducing the question is committing “naturalistic fallacy”: the tendency for empiricist philosophers to confuse the idea of what is natural with what is good.

English philosopher……known for his ” common sense philosophy”.also known for his profound work in ehics in his Principia Ehica in 1903..He believed people are entitled to our ordinary conceptions of how things are rather than idealism set by empiricist philosophers
