Martin Schulz, 28 Mar 2024}, author = {Moore,George Edward}, subject = {Good}, note = {Stegmüller IV 181 Argument of the open question/good/definition/Moore: Assuming, someone said "good" can be defined as "promoting the joy of life". Then we could still understand the question: "admittedly, it promotes the joy of life, but is it also good?". Conclusion: "good" must mean a simple, non-analytic, non-natural quality. StegmüllerVsMoore: this can only refer to the moral goodness. Cf. >Good/Plato, >Definitions, >Definability. Stegmüller IV 182 We might still suspect that there are common meaning cores in moral and non-moral contexts. >Morals, >Ethics, >Cognitivism, >Norms, >Community, >Society, >Discourse. Stegmüller IV 186 "Good"/Moore/open question/Mackie/Stegmüller: the solution of Moore's problem: those requirements with regard to whether x is good are not identical with those for which we have already admitted that x satisfies them. Vs: some believe that only the assumption of objective values could resist the argument of the open question. Only from the standpoint of "overall reality" all requirements are taken into consideration. >Objectivity. MackieVs: it is a deceptive hope that there might be something that could satisfy all conceivable kinds of requirements.}, note = { Carnap V W.
