I too like Steve was first confused in the beginning with the difficult readings and unsure why Philosophy of Ethical Problems was a college curriculum. Furthermore, concepts of ethics influenced by the ancient world became more puzzling. But as I read and reread the required books in class, along with the lectures, it began to sink in. Ethics being the study of right and wrong than realizing ethical decisions are everywhere, in the home, in the workplace and life in general. Nevertheless it can be a useful study, it may help me understand better what is best, and how to pursue it. Much success to all students and special thanks to Prof. Vaught for clearing up my initial perception of Ethics.
I was on the same page. Had no idea what the class was about. I am really happy I took this class which really make me look at some things differently.The words "Moral Value and Duty" really let me think from here on.
ReplyDeleteI believe, if more people think about moral value this world will be a better place.
An incidet happened at work about a week ago where the nurse was wrong but the patient blamed me for the incident. The nurse corrected it by letting the patient know the she was wrong, she also went to the manager admitting it was her fault and also apologized to me.This is where Moral Value comes in, And like Kant said it is also a duty.
