Criticism
Some philosophers reject the naturalistic fallacy and/or suggest solutions for the proposed is-ought problem.
Sam Harris argues that it is possible to derive "ought" from "is", and even that it has already been done to some extent. he sees morality as a budding science. This view is critical of Moore's "simple indefinable terms" (which amount to qualia), arguing instead that such terms actually can be broken down into constituents.
