Metaethics

Join George and John as they discuss different Philosophical ideas. Today they will be discussing Metaethics. This is the study of ethical language, it is a deep study of ethics looking into the nature of ethics and ethical properties, the definitions and meaning of ethical language and judgments.. When we use words like good and evil, right and wrong, what exactly do we mean. How do we define ethical language. Watch as our favourite Philosophers debate, looking into theories such as Cognitivism, Non Cognitivism, Naturalism, Non Naturalism, Emotivism and Prescriptivism.
