Excerpt from Ethics for Young People
Ethics is the science of morality. By science is here meant the systematic treatment of any object of study.
Ethics is called a science, because it presents the principles of morality in a systematic form, and seeks to find the basis upon which they rest.
A comparison with these departments of study may make more clear the nature of the subjects of which Ethics treats.
There are three kinds of science.
There are in the first place the sciences that treat of facts, of their relations to one another, and of the laws that govern them. It is to these that the name science is more commonly given.
These sciences have to do with facts past and future as well as present.
Geology pictures to us the state of the earth long ages ago, and astronomy that of the heavens. The astronomer can also foretell the position of the planets at any moment in the future, if he cares to make the calculation; and the geologist can foretell the future of the world, though with less exactness as to time.
