Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to differentiate some important ideas of morals. It distinguishes 1. between the four types of ethical judgements: on values, on rightness, on morality and on merit; 2. between the three possible bases of the right behaviour: moral feeling, moral calculus and moral dictate; 3. Between the two kinds of moral dictates: dictates of honesty and dictates of goodness. The paper explains as well the idea of unuseful values and of values which do not require to be aimed at.
