We begin this paper with revisiting the differences between descriptive and normative approach to ethics and argue about the usefulness of the latter for the filed of Machine Ethics. We continue this reasoning and present our insights on previous trends in this field and highlight the need for a change in the approach. We justify that experimental approach to Machine Ethics by introducing a moral reasoning system based on Aristotelian identification of civic rhetoric. And present it as a step forward in the Machine Ethics research bypassing theoretical disputes between specialists. We finish this paper with the introduction to the CAMILLA project for adjusting our web-crawling agent and creating an Aristotelian explicit moral agent.
