The Naturalistic and Moralistic Fallacies

At this meetup we'll begin our first transitional topic, as we prepare ourselves to depart fallacies proper and broaden our philosophical investigations. The naturalistic and moralistic fallacies challenge us to take the understanding and intuitions we've developed regarding fallacies and apply them to the ideas of nature and morals.
