During a program on rudeness... Dr. P.M. Fourney claimed that ALL ethical theories are based on Kant's means/ends formulation.
Ummm--- no, not quite
Dr. Fourney -- you wouldn't have done very well on my freshman ethics mid-term. Ignoring the likes of utilitarianism and virtue ethics isn't a good strategy.
It's disturbing to hear inaccurate things about ethics while grading ethics exams.
