The power of comprehension should not be thought to work in favor of an understanding. For instance, it should not be assumed that the ability to understand good will make a person good. That is, a moralist and a moral person are not the same individuals. It doesn’t necessarily have to be this way, but the reason it is, is because while there is only one reason to be a moral person, there can be multiple reasons to be a moralist. Ultimately, good is something everyone can be, not something elitist. In this sense, it is not a privilege that can be reached with some elite tools, but rather a privilege that can be reached directly, without anything. But of course, trying to reach it without anything, like a form of surrender, is asking for too much. The directness in reaching it is probably something it seeks. Perhaps the less a person comprehends good, the more primitive they are, the more virtuous they become. In this way, good actually becomes something elitist.
