Expressing separations Hello, I'd like to emphasize that two things are separated owing to their own foundations. What I've written is: This inclination has changed since Kant (or Machiavelli who separated political ideas from ethical ideas first). He argued that sciences of facts are fundamentally different from sciences of morality because [[these two sciences are explored by distinct faculties of our reason]], pure reason and practical reason. Am I correct to write like this to express my idea? My idea would be schematized like: pure reason --> sciences of facts practical reason --> sciences of morality Therefore, these sciences are fundamentally distinct. Thank you for your answer!

운규, I think your English is fine. However, I find myself disagreeing with the idea that there can be any science based on other than facts. Anything called a science based on other than facts should perhaps be called something else. Maybe it should be called an "area of study" or something similar. But that's an argument about content, not about the correctness of the text you wrote.
