Synthesis forthcoming?

Found this interesting and pretty insightful descriptive work on the Experimental Philosophy blog about what I had been thinking about for quite some time - that in creating a formal normative framework for ethics we will need to emcompass both the ends and the means.

strangely reminds me of the general Hegelian formula of:

Thesis + Antithesis = SYNTHESIS.
