As the Scottish philosopher [[David Hume]] outlined no set of information about how the material world "is" constructed can give us an answer about what we "ought" to do in order to be ethical. All ethical standards must therefore be include some ethical source beyond the material world. "Is" information can be used to extend an "ought" directive from one situation to another, for instance "thou shalt not kill" can be combined with the material world information that destroying someones crops is going to lead to their starvation and death and you arrive at the moral direction "You ought not to destroy your neighbors crops".
