Intuition, by definition, is

the ability to know sth by using feelings rather than considering the facts

Reason is not purely objective and
intuition is not totally self-served.

THEY ARE INTER-RELATED.

Untitled Slide

  • Because of reason fallacy (fear and authority)
  • and self-serving bias of both intuition and reason,
  • it can be concluded that....
  • reason is not purely objective nor intuition totally subjective.
  • REASON and INTUITION are INTER-RELATED.
24.

RESOLUTION

  • P1：reason - logical analysis   intuition - gut feeling
  • CC1：∵intuition is unconscious reasoning ∴P1 NOT VALID
  • P2: reason - objective    intuition - subjective
  • CC2: ∵fallacies and self-servig bias ∴P2 NOT VALID
  • CONTRADICTION RESLOVED.
25.

CONCLUSION:
Intuition and reason don't contradict but inter-related in judgement of ethical issues.
(significant because we should identify and balance those two in ethical judgement)
