Quote:I’m still not sure if we're dealing with scientific facts or logical truths, though. There’s the language problem: for me, a scientific fact cannot be moral in nature. It must by definition be amoral.Your cannots and musts express a position, but not a justification. Cornell realism is an expression of scientific naturalism. If scientific naturalism cannot be trusted to produce scientific facts or logical truths...........
