    Part of a larger discussion

    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?
    • 1.Recognition respect logically requires identifying what warrants the respect; rational agency is the cited ground.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Any form of respect necessarily involves appraisal—we cannot respect what we do not recognize as worthy of respect.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Darwall's distinction between appraisal and recognition respect still requires prior cognitive identification of the grounding property.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    1 perspective
    Reason against
    ?
    • 1.Recognition respect may be an immediate moral stance independent of prior rational assessment of properties.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.The claim conflates epistemic justification (how we know) with the metaphysical ground of respect (why respect applies).
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Some persons lack or possess diminished rational agency yet warrant equal recognition respect, suggesting rational agency isn't the true ground.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
