The Moral Dilemmas Debate, Deontic Logic, and the Impotence of Argument
Argumentation 16 (4):459-472 (2002)

Specifically, I contend that philosophers' conclusions for or against moral dilemmas are driven less by rational argument and more by how the moral world intuitively appears to themOther Versions
