Vastekomorales

Vastekomorales is a hypothetical concept that explores the intersection of vastness and morality. It suggests that the scale of an entity or situation, whether in terms of size, scope, or temporal duration, can influence or even dictate its moral implications. This idea posits that as something becomes exceedingly vast, traditional human-centric moral frameworks may become insufficient or require reinterpretation.

For example, the moral obligations towards a single individual are generally understood and accepted. However, when considering the moral implications of actions affecting billions of people, or potentially future generations, the complexities of vastekomorales come into play. Similarly, ethical considerations surrounding the management of a small ecosystem might differ significantly from those concerning the preservation of an entire planet or galaxy.

The concept also touches upon the potential for moral agents to operate on scales beyond human comprehension. If a civilization or artificial intelligence were to exist on a cosmic scale, their moral principles and actions might be incomprehensible to humans, yet still possess their own internal vastekomoral logic. Exploring vastekomorales encourages contemplation of ethical responsibility in the face of immense scale and the potential for morally significant entities or actions that transcend our current understanding. It is a philosophical thought experiment rather than an established scientific or ethical theory.
