we’ll need what developmental psychologists call “liberating structures”—rules that help but don’t constrain. And that means replacing the certainty of morals—clear, unambiguous, and binary—with the situational relevance of ethics, where it’s no longer the act that’s right or wrong, but it’s the relationship to the act that determines its value. As anthropologists joke, “It’s only wrong to eat people if you’re not a cannibal.”
