I value morality

1 First Justice warrants a contractarian viewpoint Contractarianism is the only way to avoid circular moral theories
( Gauthier1 David Morals By Agreement)

2 And Contractarianism allows us to preserve moral progress
(Fritz Allhoff The Evolution of the Moral Sentiments and the Metaphysics of Moral Ethical Theory and Moral Practice Vol 12 No 1 Empirically Informed Moral Theory (Feb 2009) pp 97-114)
