In particular, she describes it as "alarmingly content free" and refers
to
Carter's effort to "extricate himself from the swamps of moral
relativism."
Burgy, it appears that the case for replacing "honesty" by "integrity" as
a fundamental virtue is weak at best."
Carter's book, which I continue to endorse, includes some content with
which I disagree. But one critical review hardly makes the case. Have you
read the book?
Let's take one case where integrity outweighs honesty. Again, it is not
hard to come up with many examples.
It is 1938 and you live in Berlin. In your basement are your Jewish
neighbors. The Gestapo rings your doorbell and asks you to speak honestly
about their whereabouts.
You and I both know the right thing to do is be dishonest. In so being,
to be a person of integrity.
