In this book, Robin Gill argues that moral passion and rational
ethical deliberation are not enemies, and that moral passion often
lurks behind many apparently rational ethical commitments. He also
contends that though moral passion is a key component of truly
selfless moral action, without rational ethical deliberation it can
also be extremely dangerous. Gill maintains that a reanalysis of
moral passion is overdue. He inspects the gap between the 'purely
rational' accounts of ethics provided by some moral philosophers
and the normative positions that they espouse and/or the moral
actions that they pursue. He also contends that Christian ethicists
have not been adept at identifying their own implicit moral passion
or at explaining why it is that doctrinal positions generate
passionately held moral conclusions. Using a range of disciplines,
including cognitive science and moral psychology, alongside the
more usual disciplines of moral philosophy and religious ethics,
Gill also makes links with moral passion in other world faith
traditions.
