Why Scientists Who Study Good And Evil Are Vulnerable To Criticism
(2014)
Abstract
In this article, I review evidence indicating that good and evil are in the eye of the beholder. In addition, I argue that taking this stance makes one vulnerable to criticism. This argument is consistent with Roy Baumeister’s declaration that good and evil are “not strongly tethered to objective reality.”
