While not denying Robert's observation regarding philosophers, I do think
that Habermas is working with an important distinction between morality and
ethics.  Perhaps Robert would be more comfortable with Kant's distinction
between public/private reasoning, which Habermas seems to be tracking with
his morality/ethics argument.

Returning to the OP, I look forward to following the Euthyphro discussion.
