Science & Ethics

Interesting that these two articles came out at the same time: The End of Philosophy and Humanity Even for Non-humans.

I think the latter article disproves the claim of the former. And as this critic pointed out, it wouldn't even be the end of all philosophy- just the ethics part. But less trivially-speaking: just because it's natural, doesn't make it right.

  1. I think that comic nails it. Do you read David Brooks just so you have something to disagree with?
