@SIUChasmite To recast John Austin’s thesis on legal positivism: The existence of a question is one thing; its connection to experience another. Ofc every Q we have connects to experience—we are necessarily experiencers. That doesn’t mean the Qs (or their answers) need be abt experience!

@Benthamsbulldog For the deontologist, the point of doing the right thing is not to produce the optimal result. It’s to do the right thing, of which we cannot always be certain of our success, but we can always try in each individual case to get it right.

@Benthamsbulldog 4. The final point of the example (the absolutist view prohibits having criminal law) is an extension of the assumption that grouping actions is ok for deontologists. But, w Kant in mind, if u tell the truth enough, it’s pretty much certain your honesty will get someone killed.
