Just a side note: my objection to ethical arguments does not apply to those whose ethical principles are grounded in religion. In that case the ethical arguments have a ground. But when atheists insist that politics must have an ethical grounding in mid-air (that is nowhere) they reduce politics to mere gut feeling. Ethics as their own ground is deeply seated bourgeois ideology.
