I think there is some confusion here with the appeal to nature . When thinking about the naturalistic fallacy and moralistic fallacy , remember the ought/is. X is. X ought to be. |

Dr Bo has already addressed the mix-up with the appeal to nature.
You could say: P) We should try to reduce harm to animals. P) Lab-grown meat is identical to real meat (in terms of taste) but not (in terms of how it is sourced) Implicit P) Lab-grown meat does not harm animals. P) Switching to lab-grown meat would reduce harm to animals. C) We should replace real meat with lab-grown meat. Since people are really just after the taste and texture of meat, if there is a way to source it that doesn't harm animals, yet in other ways is the exact same...it's a win-win! |
