How do people know what’s right and wrong? How do people judge? Ethics has been an interest of mine for a long time. I’ve read and thought about Kantianism and the categorical imperative. I’ve studied utilitarianism. I understand the notion of appealing to an alleged higher authority. I’ve bascally found criticisms to each area of ethics and came to the conclusion that thre is no hard and fast rule. People decide that certain things are right and wrong as they go along. Then they try to find a consistent rule to their views but there is no consistency. All that one is left with is “general recommendations”.
