«It has been argued that moral philosophy is not concerned with emirical problems because ethical language cannot be translated into a so-called naturalistic language. This argument, however, confuses object-language and meta-language. Even if it is true that the object-language of meta-ethics is so-called non-naturalistic, some of our statements about sentences in this language may be empirical. Furthermore, meta-ethics is not the whole of moral philospphy. Strategy-research, for instance, has clearly empirical components.» — 38
