Past surveys show that most LessWrongers are consequentialists, and many are also effective altruism advocates. What do they think of infinities in ethics?
As I've intuitively always favoured some kind of negative utilitarianism, this has caused me some confusion.
Doesn't anthropics strongly push us to figure that the universe is infinite?
I suppose so, and that's where the problems for consequentialism arise.
