Abstract
By returning to Aristotle’s definition of ethics, "a reasoned state of capacity to act with regard to the things that are good or bad for a man," this paper reviewed The New York Academy of Sciences’ conclusion that "The fabric of reason is being ripped asunder …" and the effect this has on ethics. Ten epistemologic foundation building propositions, supported by case analyses, are presented to respond to threats of reason and impartiality.
