The Sciences of Ethics and Political Philosophy Reading Group 💻 Why Metaethics Needs Empirical Moral Psychology ★ Jeroen Hopster & Michael Klenk (2020) Session with the confirmed presence of the first author. 📆 Wed, Jun 14 · 11 am [WEST] · Online + bit.ly/3qtD6qD
But why? Why are some people capable of instantaneously tapping into the sense of meaning and worth of complete strangers? And why have we evolved to be capable of these feelings? They are strange and really quite dangerous, sometimes leading to extreme, fanatical loyalty. (3/3)
... but being the epitome of a spiritually atrophied Westerner, I could well imagine having the same feeling in the presence of certain celebs. A feeling that the meaning of my life is enhanced just by its registering very briefly in the perspective of this other person. (2/3)
Charisma is a mysterious thing. When I attended an audience with the Dalai Lama, one of the other guests, a Buddhist, told me afterwards how special it was just to have his gaze rest upon her, even for a moment. I myself did not feel this, of course... (1/3)
Tomasello: "People behave more cooperatively even if they see a picture of eyes, rather than some other picture, on the wall in from of them" psycnet.apa.org/record/2005-05…

"chimpanzees preferentially transfer food to kin, reciprocating partners, close associates and perhaps to potential mates…standard evolutionary models seem sufficient to explain the evolution of food transfers in chimpanzees" doi.org/10.1016%2Fj.an…
"The evolution of cooperative traits was a longstanding puzzle in biology that has been essentially solved by more than four decades of theory and evidence…" Excellent, fascinating, thoughtful, mind-stretching paper by @gerrygcarter 🧠🤔👏doi.org/10.1111/eth.13…
I am so happy that I got to publish this essay on animal mind with AEON Magazine. Thanks @aeonmag ! aeon.co/essays/what-do…
Reading Marc Artiga's "Rescuing Tracking Theories of Morality" and... why would he rename Street's adaptive link account to a less intuitive and less appropriate name...
