I 27
Moral/Hume: there are no conclusions here.
1. Moral affections (part of the circumstances).
2. Exceeding (knowledge).
In nature, there is no whole - in contrast to moral.
>Mind/Hume, >Nature/Hume.
I 154 f
Moral/Hume: moral does not come from reason. Principles of association cannot choose. Therefore, there is no moral from principles. But moral is similar to action. This is beyond the relations. Searching for pleasure is not content, but the work of principles.

Stegmüller IV 238
Virtue/Hume: distinction: natural virtue belongs to biological equipment. The moral philosophers have referred to it exclusively before Hume, e.g. generosity, forbearance, benevolence, charity, moderation, impartiality (basis: human sympathy). Artificial virtue: is nothing more than human inventions, e.g. respect of property, rules for ownership transfer, pledges, commitment, to satisfy contracts, loyalty to the government. This does not come from benevolence, because then it would depend on whether it is for the welfare of all. It also does not come from sympathy, because that is gradually, respect however must not be gradual.
>Sympathy/Hume.
Stegmüller IV 290
Moral/ethics/Hume/Stegmüller: we can ascribe to him that he would have rejected a justification of moral. But he would have insisted on an investigation of our terms of norms and institutions. Then, it is not a task of the philosopher to call for compliance.
>Morals/Hume, >Ethics/Hume.
