Talk:Moral naturalism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So "moral naturalism" is just another way of saying "the strong survive, the weak are killed and eaten"?

I mean, nobody's actually eating anybody else, but basically, if I understand the article correctly, it is "moral" for somebody rich and powerful to abuse the poor, simply because they can (and do) get away with it? Am I reading this correctly? xxxyyyzzz 22:58, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

I do not believe you are reading this article correctly. Either that or you commented before the modern version. Moral naturalism is merely a proposition that moral facts/values are reducible to properities of the natural world. This does not neccessarilly entail egoism or any other theory.
