Trying out one’s new sword – Mary Midgley

March 5, 2009

Every country has their own culture and it is difficult to tell them to change because they have grew with it and it is not that easy to forget or remove the traits you’ve been doing since you are a kid. Finally Japanese have removed their culture in trying out one’s new sword because for [...]

The need for more than justice – Annette Baier

March 5, 2009

The justice in our country is not that good because it is very long to have justice not like other countries it is very quick. For example: When a student got killed by a rich person of course there is a hearing in court then the rich person can even pay the judge or atty. [...]

A theory of justice – John Rawls

March 5, 2009

We all know that Justice is the involvement of people in the determination of rights and the assignment of rewards and punishments.

There are also [...]

The categorical imperative – Immanuel Kant

March 5, 2009

Good will for me is being kind and compassion. With these two personalities we can have many friends because I know that there are already few people who have this personality. If we can be kind and have compassion then we should do so because it is a nice practice and you will also be [...]

Classical utilitarianism has three propositions the first actions are to be judged right or wrong solely in virtue of their consequences. The second is assessing consequences the only thing that matters is the amount of happiness or unhappiness that is caused. Third is in calculating happiness or unhappiness that will be caused, no one’s happiness [...]

Utilitarianism – John Stuart Mill

March 5, 2009

An example of Utilitarianism for me is the Bible because it teaches us the good things we should do in life. Even if many people have different religion I think that in somehow the bible can make them believe that everything that is good is in the Bible. A good life would make anyone very [...]
