Does Badiou believe that there are no absolute truths, only opinions? Or does he believe that there are true things that really are true, but we usually can't know it? If a truth is based on an opinion, is there ever a lie?
Why does Badiou think ethics are important? To maintain order or to do good?
Do Badiou's ethics lean more toward the moral or the practical?
Do Badiou's ethics and his definitions of evil derive from his moral opinions?
What are the arguments against Badiou's theories? Who argues against them?
