Firstly, by combing the history of traditional ethical theories and methods, that traditional ethics as one of the main branches of the original philosophy is the knowledge system which contains the metaphysics of the logos spirit. However, there are two problems in the traditional ethics:one is the traditional theory of many basic words and category which have vaguely defined problem, most of them come from the subjective preferences concept which is humanity, emotions and mysterious innate intuition, and restitute traditional ethical as fundamental element, whose method without objectivity and operability; another, traditional ethical system lack of contact with real life, showing the out-break between ethical theories and actual action to undertake it.Secondly, the article has combed the main content of the logical empiricist epistemology, and the criticism of the ethics of knowledge which from the main representative of the logical empiricist, analysis of the logical empiricism treat the traditional ethics as a metaphysical system which can not be analyzed by using scientific logic language and exclude ethics out of the field of scientific and philosophy, but at the same time, they exclude out the logos in ethics at the same time.Thirdly, the article introduced and analysis the Von Wright deontic logic system.

Based on the above analysis, the philosophical significance of scientific ethics axiomatic logical system constructed has two aspects:First, scientific ethics first to save logos from which the reject by logical empiricism made ethics as non-analysis metaphysical; Science ethics construct which the von Wright’s deontic logic as representative inherited the method of logical empiricism, and this model on the one hand is used for ethics to open out in real life, on the other hand, this model can be used as an objective foundation for various ethics theory system, it can offer help to the development of ethics...
