I'd certainly agree with Ron about the MOQ's ability to judge cultural values,
but I don't understand why saying this would be considered "unfortunate",
unless Ron means that it's unfortunate for Steve's case. I think that this
ability is much less limited than the ethno-centric judgements to which Rorty's
view would confine us. I think the MOQ's evolutionary morality is the
non-ethnocentric way of judging that Steve is asking for. This ability doesn't
depend on ultimate foundations of the kind that Rorty denies, and yet it
escapes the paralyzing confines of one's ideological
tribe.
Ron:
Quite right, unfortunate for Steve's case in the comment. Likewise in the
thread with Matt and Dan,
Evolutionary morality serves the purpose for the historical narrative that Matt
is endeavoring to explain
to Dan. I think.
