Ethics' Foundation Needn't Be Inferred from the Higgs Field

Hume's is/ought problem of an inability to translate descriptive into prescriptive statements wasn't terribly interesting to me when first I read it some decades ago. The thought experience/reality-for-itself gap is meaningful obviously, yet there is a pragmatic reality-social reality and common experience of objective reality that enables practical communication and generation of ethical structures. One probably would discover wonderful ethical systems if one could directly apprehend in thought for cogitation quarks, bosons or other fermions and even the Higgs Field itself. Instead people construct their own ideal ethical systems or is/ought solutions within the world of common interpretation of nature and social reality.

I wouldn’t claim that Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill solved the Is/Ought problem with the invention of utilitarianism, yet it did move the context for inducting ethical systems and Is/Ought solutions from natural law to one of social reality. I believe people make categorical errors in requiring validation of ethical and epistemological systems constructions by reduction of either/or to a common, most fundamental grounding of epistemology and metaphysics in one substance.

One assumes there is a kind of duality between mind/experience and nature. Nature at the quantum and cosmological levels are rather enigmatic in several regards and human knowledge of them contingent and subjective. That’s O.K. though; not even Christians basing their faith in God and Divine command theory require that their ethics be based in something like Cicero’s Natural Law or in being one with the Higgs Field content in which people have an opinion they swim in. Like communications and language ethics and constructions of all sorts evolving from descriptions to prescriptions the paradigm or criterion of circumstance is the world humanity lives on. What works in practices may differ from abstract understanding of quantum phenomena and epistemology.
