Testeverything521 | The Moral Hierarchy @Testeverything521 | Uploaded 12 years ago | Updated 7 minutes ago
This video takes a look between the potential differences between a value hierarchy and a moral hierarchy.
A value hierarchy describes what we do value.
A moral hierarchy describes what we ought to value.
Our conscience helps us see that sometimes the way we ought to behave is inconsistent with what we personally value.
At the end of the day, I am arguing that pleasure is not bad in and of itself. Something like pleasure only becomes bad when we value that pleasure above something else like the rights of others.
It only becomes bad when it causes us to act on a disordered desire.
