Abstract

Sam Harris, one of the new atheists, believes that science is an authority in moral issues. Science can help us understand what our moral duties are, and what is right and wrong in a moral sense.

Here we show that Harris’s moral theory is a particular project which could not be “scientifically” justifiable.
