  • Modern VE: MacIntyre
    • Modern morality has suffered a catastrophe, has lost sight of its roots
    • "We have very largely, if not entirely, lost our comprehension, both theoretical and practical, of morality"
    • We have lost moral wisdom
    • A moral Q should be explored in terms of how we should make the most of our human lives
    • James F. Keenan = who am I? who ought I to become? how do I get there?
    • Our ability to make good moral judgement comes from good character
    • Virtues of life enables us to make good moral judgements
    • Moral society would be one in which people recognise and accept common virtues
    • Virtues are understood from within a community of people who live in a certain way
