The Core Of Ethics Runs Deep In Our Species And Is Common To Human Beings Everywhere. It Survives The Most Appalling Hardships And The Most Ruthless Attempts To Deprive Human Beings Of Their Humanity.

I Would Like Us To Think About It More Explicitly, And Not Take Our Intuitions As The Given Of Ethics, But Rather To Reflect On It, And Be More Open About The Fact That Something Is An Ethical Issues And Think What We Ought To Do About It.
