"I think the more honest and accurate your moral philosophy is, the more worrying it's going to be, and the greater the dynamism of doubt is going to be: that we live with doubt and uncertainty involved. Now, are there philosophers who claim to have constructed a reassuring rational edifice of universal, reliable answers to these questions? Yes. […] And all of that approach is deeply flawed, dangerous, misleading and wrong. […]" "Universal, rational ethical principles are reassuring, and they're all the more dangerous for that reason. […] Be worried, I think that's quite appropriate."
