Salam Mr Shahid,
thnx for a healthy criticism.

but i do use my cognitive capabilities to differentiate between what has been empirically proved n what still needs more socio-scientfc research into..
Well in this regard i do agree with you. but in my post, nothing has been eparically proved, i.e. it has not been proved that man lives like this. Secondly the purpose of the post is not to prove it at any cost (it may be proven wrong).

Quote:
So u quoted from "Mumblings of a Platonist"...I re-quote him again n then leave upto u to wonder how come u started believing in still un-born 2 types of moral understanding when the researcher himself is still preparing to carry out his research to prove his two types...
i comprehended the idea(as i am of the same opinion)... i think my statement
Quote:
first of all we percieve our own understanding and then we formulate normative or positive strategies.
is sufficient to hold my belief. i didn't state about persons with high/low level of understanding.( as level of understanding is not the theme)
Concisely, i comprehended the idea to differenciate between the scope of study of moral understanding and moral values.


Quote:
"LIKE MOST THINGS IN MY PAPER,THIS LOOKS KINDA,BUT NOT COMPLETELY,TRUE.OR PERHAPS MORE ACCURATELY,IN ONE SENSE THIS SEEMS TO MAKE SENSE,BUT IN ANOTHER SENSE IT SEEMS TO ME TO BE BORDERING ON NONSENSE"
i think, it is the situation my post is facing.

Quote:
Thanks for letting me know tht i mistook moral understanding for moral values...
Mr Shahid, i'll appriciate your explaination on 'moral values and moral understanding are the same subject matters" (may be my opinion of separting the two scopes is wrong)

Regards
Qurat
