On descriptive moral uncertainty: it seems that the more accurately I try to describe my mode of moral thought, the more I have to add edge cases, if chains, and spaghetti reasoning.

In some sense this is just plain introspection failure. But it also seems to me that Nature is a crappy programmer.

Additionally, I do wonder sometimes if "what is moral?" isn't inherently a wrong question.
