No I don't, it can be subjective and the argument still goes through.
If you comply with the VNM axioms then you have an (effective) utility function and so that moral worth is calculable. And if you don't follow those axioms you get dutch-booked.
it can be subjective and the argument still goes through.
How does that work? Alice thinks the moral worth of a cow is high enough not to mistreat or eat it. Bob thinks that the moral worth of a cow is zero and cares only about the quality of his steak. How are you going to reconcile their views (or even estimates)?
I think it's past time for another Stupid Questions thread, so here we go.
This thread is for asking any questions that might seem obvious, tangential, silly or what-have-you. Please respect people trying to fix any ignorance they might have, rather than mocking that ignorance.
