63. Moral Skepticism [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] The theory, supported by J.L. Mackie in Ethics inventing Right and Wrong, that belief in objective moral principles cannot be justified. http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/m/m-skepti.htm

Moral Skepticism Moral skepticism is an epistemological position that we do not have knowledge or justification for believing in objective moral principles. Moral skepticism does not involve the rejection of moral values themselves, but simply the denial that we have knowledge of an objective realm of morals. Moral skeptics sometimes argue that moral values are similar to aesthetic judgments. Aesthetic judgments such as "This painting is beautiful" and "The food in this restaurant is pretty awful" are not objective in nature are based on human preferences. Analogously, moral skeptics argue that moral judgments like "premarital sex is wrong" or "abortion is wrong" are also not objective in nature. The most effective argument for moral skepticism is to question the existence of the realms in which objective moral principles are thought to reside. If the very notion of a spirit-like realm of abstract entities is called into question, then moral principles cannot be objective in that sense. MACKIE'S DEFENSE. In Ethics: Inventing Right and Wrong Mackie concludes that even if values are not objective, this does not mean that morality is useless. Instead, Mackie emphasizes the importance of creating moral guidelines which regulate the actions of ourselves and others.

65. Abraham Gesner Saved The Whales Who really saved the whales? Abraham Gesner did, by inventing kerosene. This single page is an exposition by James S. Robbins of changing technology and changing pressures on the ecology. http://alts.net/ns1625/gesner.html

Abraham Gesner Abraham Gesner ... saved more whales than Green Peace ever will ... In 1849, Gesner devised a method to distill kerosene from petroleum. In 1846 there were 735 ships in the whaling fleet. Thirty years later, in 1876, the fleet was down to 39 ships. Kerosene had taken over the whale oil market. The price of sperm oil reached its high of $1.77 per gallon in 1856; by 1896 it sold for 40 cents. Yet it could not keep pace with the price of refined petroleum, which dropped from 59 cents per gallon in 1865 to a fraction over seven cents in 1895. How Capitalism Saved the Whales by James S. Robbins It is an article of faith among environmentalists that the ills of the world can be traced to economic and technological development, especially since the industrial revolution. The changes that took place in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, such as harnessing new sources of energy (moving from water to coal power, for example), the development of the factory system, and the human population explosion, they say, led directly to the current problems with waste disposal, air and water pollution, overcrowding, and misused resources, not to mention global warming, ozone depletion, acid rain, and other highly speculative developments. Fixation on doomsaying can cause environmentalists to forget that the negative consequences of industrialization are minute compared to the positive developments of the industrial age. People are healthier, live longer, and are more productive than ever before in history. But defenders of industrialism can go even further to show that in many cases technological progress has benefited the environment. This is vividly demonstrated in the case of one of the most emotion-laden symbols of environmentalism, the whales.

No. 894 INVENTING PRINTING by John H. Lienhard Click here for audio of Episode 894. So: How did we really figure out how to print words on paper? The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. T he oldest known piece of paper was made in Shangsi Province in China around 49 BC. That's about the same time sheepskin was replacing papyrus in the Roman world. So what is paper, really? You make paper by spreading out a slurry of organic fibers and draining off the water. Paper is a kind of felt made of overlapping fibers. At first the Chinese made paper from hemp. They used it for wrapping and decoration not for writing. They'd already been wrapping themselves in felt clothing. In AD 105, one Ts'ai Lun used paper to replace bamboo blocks as a writing surface. He made it from fibers of bark, bamboo, and hemp. By AD 500, the Chinese had experimented with rattan and mulberry and had finally settled on bamboo paper. And they not only wrote on their paper. They printed on it as well. Of course printing is, in the broadest sense, older than coal. Stamps, brands, royal seals even imprints of fossils on limestone are, after all, forms of block printing.

March/April 1998 Vol. 54, No. 2 Inventing Threats It was a remarkable admission for a chairman of the Joint Chiefs: "I'm running out of demons. I'm down to Kim Il Sung and Castro." The context for Gen. Colin Powell's 1991 remarks to Congress was the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact and America's recent victory in the Gulf War. When the Soviet Union collapsed soon after, an article in Aerospace Daily, a leading defense industry newsletter, recalled Powell's remarks and predicted: "Pentagon Budget Headed for $150 BillionHalf Current Level By 1996." But what a difference a few years can make. When he unveiled the "Quadrennial Defense Review" last May, Defense Secretary William Cohen warned that "new threats and dangers, harder to define and more difficult to track, have gathered on the horizon." Contrary to Aerospace Daily's forecast, Secretary Cohen sees keeping the Pentagon budget at $250 billion or slightly moreabout 77 percent of the 1991 level. Breaking with reality Beginning with efforts at the Rand Corporation during the late 1980s, the focus of defense planners has shifted from "the clear and present danger" of Soviet power to the intractable problem of "uncertainty." Along with this shift has come a new type of Pentagon partisan-the "uncertainty hawk."

It's an implicit fact of the Web, usually too obvious to bother mentioning: The fabric of online experience is woven with clicks, double clicks, and the occasional drag-down menu. And this trait has long been the value proposition of choice for Web publishers seeking to advance their ad revenue streams. Site publishers and the representation firms that sold their inventory could promise (for the first time in ad history) to measure effectiveness and deliver sales. By now it's clear that this wasn't necessarily a good idea, and it looks like 2001 will go down as the year the primacy of the mouse button faded.

Back to Modern History Sourcebook Modern History Sourcebook: Thucydides: On Inventing Speeches Thucydides History of the Peloponnesian War was a major innovation in the recounting of the past. Rather than telling stories for entertainment or mythological reasons, Thucydides tried to analyse the past and form a coherent narrative. To do this required coming to grips with less than perfect source material. Thucydides discusses his solution. This text is part of the Internet Modern History Sourcebook . The Sourcebook is a collection of public domain and copy-permitted texts for introductory level classes in modern European and World history. (c)Paul Halsall, April 1998 halsall@murray.fordham.edu
