I don't agree with all of his positions or primarily use utilitarian ethics but he gives well-reasoned arguments for his positions. Furthermore, he tries to follow his principles which cannot be said for everyone. So I think he is a good moral teacher.
"If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."
