'''Ethica Ultima''' or "Ultimate Ethics" is the name given to the perfect ethical and ultimate moral framework. While a perfect ethical system that maximizes morality and outcomes in theory exists, we can only approximate such a system with higher degrees of precision.

	~~== Ethical Sum ==~~
	One mathematical approach to rigorous ethical evaluation is to utilize a similar process as those used for calculating [[wikipedia:Path integral formulation\|path integrals]] in [[wikipedia:Quantum Field Theory\|Quantum Field Theory]] (QFT). This is not so much a quantum ethics, but rather a reflection that both QFT and this sort of rigorous ethical analysis both deal with a similar problem: infinite possible paths and uncertain outcomes.

	In QFT, [[wikipedia:Path integral formulation#Feynman's interpretation\|Feynman's path integrals]] are a way to calculate outcome probabilities, or a [[wikipedia:Probability amplitude\|probability amplitude]], by summing over all possible paths.

	When applied to morality, the result can be called an '''Ethical Sum''': an integration over all possible consequences for a given action where each path contributes according to its probability and its '''moral weight'''.

	~~== Moral Weight ==~~

	As an analogue to the [[wikipedia:Phase factor\|phase factor]] in QFT, the '''moral weight''' tells you how much each possible path or outcome for a given action contributes as a quantitative measure of ethical value (positive or negative).

	~~In other words, the '''moral weight''' tells you how virtuous or harmful an outcome is assessed to be. This value can then be summed across all possible outcomes.~~

	~~While it cannot be known with absolute certainty, the more accurate and rigorous all '''Ethical Sums''' are calculated, the closer one should get to the true '''Ethica Ultima'''.~~

	~~== Baseline ==~~


			Two mathematical methods that can be used for an eternity-minded ethical framework involve calculating [[Ethical Sum]] and [[Baseline]].
