    A master’s degree in Philosophy, specializing in ethical theory.

    Take for example, the statement “he didn’t deserve that”. How do we find out if that’s true?

    Or we can look at the lack of epistemological grounding. If I bet you €5 that some building is taller than another, we can go online, find out who’s right, and the money’s paid out.

    Now imagine I bet you that fur clothing is always morally wrong. How could the money get paid out? What evidence would make a publicly available conclusion?
