A smaller critique of total utilitarianism:
You can just finish there.
(In case the "sufficient cause to reject total utilitarianism" isn't clear: I don't like murder. Total utilitarianism advocates it in all sorts of scenarios that I would not. Therefore, total utilitarianism is Evil.)
:-) I kinda did. The rest was just "there are no strong countervailing reasons to reject that intuition".
Excellent post then. I kind of stopped after the first line so I'll take your word for the rest!
