This belief isnt novel, it just doesnt engage with Hume, who many take very seriously.

- simpaticoder 9mo agoDo you have a reference?
- dugidugout 9mo agoI'm not sure, but it sounds like something biocentrism adjacent. My reference to Hume is the fact you are jumping from what is to what ought without justifying why. _A Treatise of Human Nature_ is a good place to start.
- staticassertion 9mo agohttps://www.richardcarrier.info/archives/14879 https://www.richardcarrier.info/archives/14879 Richard Carrier takes an extremely similar position in total (ie: both in position towards "is ought" and biological grounding). It engages with Hume by providing a way to side step the problem.
