ABSTRACT
The introduction outlines the basic outlook of the project. The overall point of the arguments that follow is to further limn what the intellectual virtues of humility and justice look like in concrete philosophical discourses. A basic outline of the argument is presented. The belief B that ‘x is permissible,’ where x is an act of intentional killing or harming of a human being, is subject to epistemic diffidence. (Hereafter, ‘x’ is a variable only for the issues I discuss in this work.) If B is subject to epistemic diffidence, it would be impermissible to act on that belief. Therefore, it is impermissible to act on ‘x is permissible’ where x includes the specific actions that I address in this book.
