Does anyone own "The Moral Landscape"?

[robvalue]

Just throwing out a couple of examples of how consequentialism falls down quickly if overly relied on (as Harris appears to do):

If I run over your dog by accident, is that as immoral as running it over on purpose? The outcomes are the same either way, but I feel most people would say intention matters.

If I spy on you getting changed, or go in your room and read private information (but don’t use it), and no one ever finds out I did it, is that immoral? I haven’t caused any outcomes, so by c-ism it’s a neutral action I assume. Does it suddenly become immoral once discovered? That makes no sense.

This is why any particular moral tool breaks down if not used in a nuanced way. The way most people consider morality to be is just too complex to easily categorise.
