This reflection explores the philosophical prerequisites of ethics within the context of global events and the "true" order of things. The author contends that ethics can only be philosophically serious if we do not dismiss the potential connection between ethical norms and the inherent meaning of the entire world's progression. This scope necessarily encompasses both historical developments and the processes of the natural world. The text argues against the subjectivization of moral thought, suggesting that ethics should not be limited to human cognition and behavior alone. If we are to distinguish between what simply occurs and what is "right" or "authentic," this distinction must find support at deeper levels of reality. Therefore, moral thinking requires an ontological foundation that transcends the human subject and resonates throughout all levels of world reality. By grounding ethics in the totality of being, the text emphasizes the necessity of viewing ethical principles as integral to the world's structure rather than as mere subjective preferences.
