I Conceive Ethics As A Branch Of

Life May Be Not Only Meaningless But Absurd.

It Is Prima Facie Highly Implausible That Life As We Know It Is The Result Of A Sequence Of Physical Accidents Together With The Mechanism Of Natural Selection.

Every Subjective Phenomenon Is Essentially Connected With A Single Point Of View, And It Seems Inevitable That An Objective, Physical Theory Will Abandon That Point Of View.

Consciousness Is What Makes The Mind-body Problem Really Intractable.

The Problem Is One Of Opposition Between Subjective And Objective Points Of View. There Is A Tendency To Seek An Objective Account Of Everything Before Admitting Its Reality. But Often What Appears To A More Subjective Point Of View Cannot Be Accounted For In This Way. So Either The Objective Conception Of The World Is Incomplete, Or The Subjective Involves Illusions That Should Be Rejected.
