[Serious] Moral Obligations toward Possible Worlds

[Angrboda]

I tend to want to say "in the act." There are right and wrong actions, and even responsible moral agents commit wrong acts.

Yeah, I have tended to consider the question “What does it mean to be virtuous?” more basic than “What is right action?” and usually take it for granted that the virtues of a moral agent is a pre-condition for his or her right action. Unless of course there are paradoxical situations in which someone can face a circumstances with sound judgement, courage, and competency…and despite such virtue, make morally reprehensible choices.

There's a certain Malthusian logic to his choice. But was he wrong?
