Greene discusses post hoc rationalization and why we make up reasons for something that is wrong when we have a feeling about something being wrong. In the example of the runway train, we think that it is wrong to push the man off the bridge. Greene argues that we should not trust that disposition because we are reasoning with our emotions. He does not think that we should use our intuitions because we are in a new complex world and our emotions are primitive and not correspondent. Therefore, we should not trust our deontological
