Briefly discuss the basic position of ethical naturalism, commenting specifically upon the ways in which science can, arguably, enhance our understanding of morality
What will be an ideal response?
Should include description of ethical naturalism as a position arguing that objective knowledge of moral issues can be obtained in the same ways we obtain objective knowledge of non-moral issues (e.g., in the natural or social sciences). Specific illustrations might point to the ways in which scientific research on genetics, nutrition, or social scientific research on crime and punishment might provide a basis for more objectively desirable law and policy.
