@MinhNamNguyen96 I agree that possibly a more sensitive approach could have helped his overall ideas reach his countrymen better. It makes more sense to customize to your audience. #I2E21

@Noah13231481 I find it very interesting that some might see that it’s easier to show that something is wrong than to show something is right. For instance, in many scenarios were I have asked if something I did was wrong or right, depending on who I asked the answer would vary. #I2E21

Overall, I like to exemplify that fact of studying ethics together. It is always something I will continue to learn about and grow with throughout my life! #I2E21

What does Aristotle say that the account of the excellence of character focuses on the excellence associated with “________” part of the soul?! #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

Excellence of the human soul. #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

We learned that Aristotle’s Ethics of Excellence is based on the idea that happiness or eudaemonia is an activity of the soul in accordance with excellence. It is important to remember that although Aristotle tends to focus on excellence of character, it’s not the only

@chrisevansipho6 I agree, I believe people can help people find happiness. A small compliment can go a long way. It’s also all the little things in life that add up to help a persons happiness grow! #I2E21

@_zahrawest I think that the right to life 100% should apply to prisoners on death row. No matter what someone does, there right to life should not be taken. It just dismisses the theory. #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

In the articles, we learned that there is a great emphasize in the importance on the kind of person one is. It is said that we want those around us to not only to tell the truth but we also want them to be overall honest people. I can’t say I disagree with this. #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

Aristotle believes that happiness is the chief good and end of human life. Like many Utilitarians believe. I am unsure of what I believe. What do you guys believe is the chief good and end of human life? #I2E21

When people say that the theory of Normative Ethics are universal, that just means that they apply to all people everywhere. When people say that the theory of Normative Ethics are impartial, that just means that they do not allow special treatment! #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

Categorical imperative is defined as a command that holds for all rational beings regardless of their subjective desires, inclinations, and appetites. This is an idea introduced by?! #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

@WaldenBecca I agree! The general interests conceptions does seem inconvenient to me. I also agree that we should let safety take the place of interests in our lives. Especially in acute situations. #I2E21

@KelzPag I found them a little difficult to understand. However, rewatching parts of the lectures that I got confused on and reading the into paragraphs for each module was helpful in further learning the concepts. #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

One idea that Kant uses, is the idea of maxim. As we learned, Maxim is described as “do A for the sake of P”. Within doing this, Kant is hoping to formalize the idea of a persons intention in acting as they do. #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

Immanuel Kant is known for having the most ambitious of Deontological approaches. This is because he stresses that the goodness of outcomes has no moral worth whatsoever. He also argues that the focus of morality should come from good will and acting for sake duty. #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

@sqrimbey I agree. Death row is a very controversial topic. there have been many cases of falsely accused people so having the death penalty put into play can make the situation sticky. #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

@2syon53 I thought about this statement for awhile when decided if I agreed with it. I agree that we would want an honest leader, but I can’t say I agree with acting immorally. Two wrongs do not make a right. #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

Given the question presented in module 22. I think it is possible for a person to find themselves in a situation where no matter what they choose it will be morally wrong. For example, the train situation and choosing how many lives to save. #I2E21

[Elizabeth Droluk @DrolukElizabeth]

Deontologists believe that there should be a constraint against harm. We learned about this in module 21. Deontology imposed firm constraints on our actions. I can agree with a little of deontology concepts. #I2E21
