I argue that the pre-established harmony response is unsuccessful on two grounds: it is anthropocentric and it is question-begging. I suggest that we can overcome both problems and leave the essential features of pre-established harmony responses intact by substituting a proxy function for the question-begging assumption. I suggest one such proxy function: The Combined Evolutionary Aim; use of which brings the added benefit of being less anthropocentric than earlier pre-established harmony responses.v, 49 leaves ; 29 cm.Englishinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEvolutionary DebunkingMetaethicsMoral RealismNon-NaturalismThesisB158471
