What I am saying is that you simply have to be human in the natural sense of the word to be ethical. Human as in being able to feel compassion instead of being a sociopath. Not philosophy required. Maybe I'm in the mniority, but I'm one of the persons who hold the position of no philosophy required at all if you are a sentient being. And I don't even confine that to humans.
