Ethics

"affirmed that statements about metaphysics, religion and ethics are devoid of cognitive meaning "

Moritz Schlick: "Problems of Ethics", 1939. I doubt that we can simplify the views of the Vienna Circle about ethics this way.

Logical Empiricism

As I know, the philosophy of the Vienna Circle is called Logical Positivism, while the philosophy of the Berlin Circle (Reichenbach) as logical empirism. So they are not synonims, altough almost indistinguishable. --Matthias Brendel 09:20, 20 November 2006 (CST)
