alles anderes ist Menschenwerk

phrase

“Everything else is the work of man.” “Everything else is a human construct.”

Alles andere ist Menschenwerk.

意味（1）

“Everything else is the work of man.” “Everything else is a human construct.”

Yet in its inadequate way it seems to gesture towards something which is closest of all to what has concerned many who have been worried about moral objectivity: the idea that there is no moral order ‘out there’ – out there, in the world, are only the sorts of things and the sorts of facts that science, and the more everyday processes of human enquiry of which science is a refinement, deal. Alles anderes ist Menschenwerk. Statement (c) [There are no moral facts; there are only the sorts of facts that science or common observation can discover, and the values that men place on those facts.] can be said – using the word in an unambitious way – to express a metaphysical view.
