"it is important to keep in mind the distinction between what is the case (which is description) and what ought to be the case(which is prescription) when doing philosophical ethics.
Ethics is concerned with the general question of what ought to be the case --how we should behave and how we should act. It is not concerned to describe (or to justify) the way people currently do things. For all we know, the way people currently do things is wrong -- for all we know, that is, until we subject their actions to scrutiny and see if they hold up to examination."
