Schmidtz comments:‘To answer a person's "why be moral"question , we need to show that he or she has reason to be moral. If we try toanswer by arguing that being moral is rational, we had better make sure he or she has reason to be what we are calling rational. We may connect morality to whatwe call rationality, but unless people have reason to be what we call rational,the connection will be inconsequential.'
