[eBook] [PDF] For Robust Realism in Ethics 1st Edition By Stephen Ingram

Stephen Ingram explains a strong theory about what makes something right or wrong, based on the idea that moral choices are not random. He says that in order to understand why some choices are truly right or wrong, we need to believe that there are real, objective facts about what is good and bad, no matter what we personally believe.

Ingram points out five problems with some ideas about ethics:

  1. Some theories say moral facts are just random or unexplainable.
  2. Some theories say that some people’s moral opinions are more important than others.
  3. Some ideas don’t give enough rules to guide us.
  4. Some think we “own” what is right or wrong.
  5. Some theories make moral rules feel uncertain or confusing.

Ingram argues that his theory, called robust realism, avoids all these problems. He also shows that by studying how people talk about right and wrong with each other, we can better understand how we know what is truly good or bad. He explains that some of our moral beliefs come from instincts or gut feelings, while others come from the experiences we have in life. He also introduces the idea of “moral mental files” to explain how we connect moral words and ideas to real facts about what is right or wrong.
