There is a dilemma that arises for a surprising number of ethical views and that is generated by a thesis they share. They all hold that it’s a necessary condition for an act or state of affairs to have an ethical property such as rightness or goodness that it be accompanied by the belief that it has that property. There is an escape from the dilemma that is open to some of these views, but it isn’t open to others; for them the dilemma poses a problem.
