Moral Positivism and Moral Aestheticism
Philosophy 13 (50):131 - 147 (1938)
Abstract
Mr. Ayer , in Language, Truth and Logic , says: “Sentences which simply express moral judgments do not say anything. They are pure expressions of feeling and as such do not come under the category of truth and falsehood.... Aesthetic terms are used in exactly the same way as ethical terms."Other Versions
