[Revised entry by Henry S. Richardson on February 11, 2013.
Changes to: Main text, Bibliography]
Moral reasoning is individual or collective practical reasoning about what, morally, one ought to do. Philosophical examination of moral reasoning faces both distinctive puzzles - about how we recognize moral considerations and cope with conflicts among them and about how they move us to act - and distinctive opportunities for gleaning insight about what we ought to do from how we reason...

There are many questions in philosophy to which no satisfactory answer has yet been given. But the question of the nature of the gods is the darkest and most difficult of all....

from Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy

[Revised entry by Jesse Alama on February 8, 2013.
Changes to: Main text, Bibliography]
The l-calculus is, at heart, a simple notation for functions and application. The main ideas are applying a function to an argument and forming functions by abstraction. The syntax of basic l-calculus is quite sparse, making it an elegant, focused notation for representing functions. Functions and arguments are on a par with one another. The result is an intensional theory of functions as rules of computation, contrasting with the traditional extensional approach one of function as a set of pairs of a certain...
