Ethics/Nozick: there is no argument, which Hitler had to bow to. - This means that we cannot regard ethics as absolute, but: E.g. Heimson: does not bring our belief system about personal identity in the same way at risk.
>Heimson case/Perry.
We have more of a "How's that possible?"
Question about ethics than about personal identity.
>Identity, >Personal identity, >Temporal identity, >Identification, >Individuation, >Individual, >Person.
II 118
Categorical imperative/Kant/Nozick: when the content could be extracted from the form, it would not be a "hard fact" (brute fact) anymore. - It would arise necessarily from the form.
>Bare fact, >Categorical imperative, >Ethics/Kant, >Morality/Kant.
II 570
Ethics/Nozick: how important is it, anyway? - As long as the meaning of our lives is not shown, ethics and values appear to be meaningless.
>Life.
II 631
Ethics/moral/reduction/Reductionism/Nozick: VsReductionism: infringes the principle that everything has a value in itself.
NozickVsVs: this is not only theoretically wrong but also morally wrong.
>Reductionism, >Reduction, >Values.
