This has an effect on the double negation and the sentence of the excluded middle. B) Intuitionism of ethics assumes that moral principles are fixed and are immediately (or intuitively) knowable. _____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
