Abstract

Edward Elliott and Jessica Isserow argue that it is not usually in the best interests of ordinary human beings to learn the truth of moral nihilism. According to Elliott and Isserow, ordinary human beings would suffer costs from learning the truth of moral nihilism that are unlikely to be fully compensated for by any benefits. Here I provide reasons to doubt that ordinary human beings would suffer costs from learning the truth of moral nihilism and present a dilemma for Elliott and Isserow’s view.

道德虚无主义——那又怎样?

爱德华·艾略特(Edward Elliott)和杰西卡·伊塞罗(Jessica Isserow)认为，了解道德虚无主义的真相通常不符合普通人的最佳利益。根据艾略特和伊瑟罗的观点，普通人在学习道德虚无主义的真理中会付出代价，而这种代价不太可能被任何利益所完全补偿。在这里，我提供了理由来怀疑普通人是否会因为学习道德虚无主义的真理而付出代价，并为艾略特和伊塞罗的观点提出了一个困境。
