Speaking of that little treatise, The Structure of Ethics, on page 26, in the 2nd paragraph, you will find an explanation of how to become all you are capable of becoming.
Also on that page, in the 3rd paragraph, you will find a discussion of the unique definition being offered for the term “morality.” It explains how this definition follows from the more basic one, the definition of “value…” This is fitting, since “morality” is synonymous with “moral value.”
Something has value if it exemplifies its concept. That is, if its properties correspond to some degree with the intension of its concept. [size=87]{The intension, or description, is a set of attributes. Attributes are names of properties.}[/size] Logicians would understand this.
More popularly phrased, anything has value if it is - even partially - what it is supposed to be.
If the features or qualities of x live up to the purpose or intention of x, then we say of x that it has value, or is a value. Many people recognize a value when they see one. The concept of value is basic to the study of axiology. And Formal Axiology is the meta-language for scientific Ethics
Yes, it all makes sense if one puts in the prerequisite study to comprehend and grasp the big picture …the web of the universe …how all relates to all.
Now that Ethics is systematic, and has empirical data to back it up, it can be taught to children in the fourth or fifth grades.
What do you have to say? Where do you stand?
