| I believe there are objective, reasonable laws that can be arrived at via logic which benefit mankind. I think morals however, are just evolutions approximation at them, so that we can do what maximises our survival without us having to think for a very long time, and work at removing bias, and all the other things necessary to use pure logic effectively.
What I am saying is, morals are the icing on the cake, underneath there is the logic that they tended to help our ancestors survive rather than die, even though there is some randomness involved from generation to generation. I am an objective moralist therefore, I believe the law system and morals should coincide to a large extent.
This is either madness... or brilliance |
