I've been lurking in the weeds on this hoping someone would come up with
something very smart. . .I don't have that anything.
I started to read _The Moral Sense_ by James Q. Wilson several years ago. I
"think" he intended to answer this question of the limits of morality and
the nature of virtue, but do to other issues I never got past the first
chapter. I wondered if any of the list members had read this and if so, what
they think of it. Should I go back and try again? Did (does) it answer the
question

. . .The Creativity within the natural system we
inherit, and the values this generates, are the
ground of our being, not just the ground under
our feet. Earth could be the ultimate object of duty,
short of God, if God exists.
