Re: BHA: Re: Tobin Epistemological relativism

I agree with what Tobin said.  I can't quite figure out why the concept of emergence seems to be so much more difficult to accept in relation to moral realism than it is to realism about societies, for example, or about beliefs generally.  It's curious that Marko's physicalism seems plausible in relation to moral beliefs but not in relation to other sorts of higher level, or abstract phenomena.
