TL;DR: The common image of the moral agent is one who makes decisions as discussed by the authors, and moral autonomy is grounded in the rational capacity to discern options, make decisions, and enact intentions, and the costly investment of cognitive resources into moral deliberation underlie the very notion of moral autonomy.
Abstract: the common image of the moral agent is one who makes decisions. Moral decisions are the product of vast calculation. Principles are discerned, judgments are formed, rules of application are weighed. The requirements of duty, the probative force of outcomes and consequences, and the adjudication of competing claims are all fairly transparent to the rational, deliberative agent who engages in extensive cognitive effort in order to resolve dilemmas, make choices, and justify actions. Indeed, the costly investment of cognitive resources into moral deliberation is thought to underlie the very notion of moral autonomy. Moral freedom is grounded in the rational capacity to discern options, make decisions, and enact intentions.
