Leibovich and values

שו”תLeibovich and values
asked 7 years ago

In honor of Rabbi Michael Avraham
First of all, apologies, you asked not to ask questions at long intervals, but it takes me time to think things through and find sources.
The discussion below is not about what is right, but rather what Leibowitz thinks:
You claimed that Leibowitz actually agreed with the method of intuition, but as a positivist he could not see this. In other words, when Leibowitz claimed that a certain thing was a value in his eyes, he meant that intuitively he saw it as good. I found a quote, which I heard on a recording, in which he said: “Values ​​do not exist in themselves, values ​​are things that a person sees as values, and this view is an expression of a person’s rational faculty. This is something that he wants, or wants to have,” and Agassi adds, “not in the sense of appetite.”
In my opinion, there is a contradiction here with your position, and Leibowitz saw values ​​only as what a person wants. According to you, Leibowitz removed ethics from philosophy.

What is this doing here? Is it a continuation of something else that started before? Please go back and link it to its place.
