They apprehend a sense of “reality” as dasein. But to understand this as I do discomfits many. And so [more or less consciously] they embrace one or another “objective” account of human interactions. One that transcends history or culture. This allows them to integrate “I” into the one true objective reality [their own].
For some though this is still not enough. They need to integrate their own sense of reality into a/the Reality itself. For some it’s God, for others it’s Reason.
And that is when I introduce them to conflicting goods. In other words, with regard to different Gods and different Reasons, there are different behaviors deemed rational, moral, just, virtuous etc. How then does the philosopher determine which behaviors the truly rational man or woman is obligated to pursue?
And that is when I introduce them to this:
If I am always of the opinion that 1] my own values are rooted in dasein and 2] that there are no objective values “I” can reach, then every time I make one particular moral/political leap, I am admitting that I might have gone in the other direction…or that I might just as well have gone in the other direction.
That’s where I get “stuck”. In fact, I’ve been stuck there now for years.
