Who teaches ethics?
From Overcoming Bias, one of the best philosophy blogs out there:
“Study 1 found that contemporary (post-1959) ethics books were actually 25% more likely to be missing than non-ethics books. When the list was reduced to the relatively obscure books most likely to be borrowed exclusively by professional ethicists, ethics books were almost 50% more likely to be missing. Study 2 found that classic (pre-1900) ethics books were more than twice as likely to be missing as other classic philosophy books.”
So…
Homophobes often turn out to be homosexuals, psychology students tend to have mental health issues, and ethics professors steal more than most other people.
It’s an odd world we live in.
