The Fact-Value Distinction | The Is-Ought Problem & Naturalistic Fallacy

Is there a strict line between facts and values? In this lecture, we explore the famous Fact-Value Distinction, differentiating between descriptive claims (how the world is) and evaluative claims (how the world ought to be)
.
We delve into common logical errors like the Naturalistic Fallacy, which wrongly attempts to derive moral values from natural facts
. You will also learn about David Hume's famous "is-ought" problem
and G.E. Moore's Open-Question Argument
. Finally, we examine major objections to this distinction, including Hilary Putnam's argument that even objective scientific reasoning requires evaluative principles
