    relativism)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • What do you believe is the strongest argument
    against relativism that was presented the
    readings for the week? Outline the argument
    presenting the reasons the author gives for
    thinking that relativism is inadequate. Finally,
    discuss relativism with your classmates in
    general. What are some relativistic beliefs you
    have held? Do you believe that they can be
    justified or do you plan on reevaluating those
    beliefs now that you have learned more about
    relativism?

    James)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • What are some relativistic beliefs that you have
    or that you find in society? What are those
    ethical beliefs and how do people justify those
    beliefs? Using the articles from Mary Midgley
    and James Rachels, present a critique of those
    relativistic beliefs. What reasons do you have
    for thinking that these beliefs are not
    consistent.

  • PHI 208 Week 1 Discussion (ring of Gyges)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  • In the excerpt from the Republic the example of
    the ring of Gyges is used to claim that humans
    only act morally because of fear that they will
    be caught. Present an example of someone being
    morally good out of fear and then present an
    example of someone being morally good out of an
    inherent desire to act in a specific way.
    Discuss with others the idea that morality is
    inherent and based on universal principles or
    virtues versus the idea that ethics is socially
    created and varies based on human social and
    political context

  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • Slavery has been practiced world-wide since the
    earliest days of humanity and is still practiced
    in parts of the world even today. Even the Bible
    condones slavery. Yet today in America most
    people think that slavery is absolutely morally
    wrong. Polygamy has been practiced world-wide
    since the earliest days and is still practiced in
    parts of the world even today. Some major
    religions require polygamy.

    Philosophy)
  • For more course tutorials visit

  •  
  •  
  • Using at least one quote from chapter six of
    Understanding Philosophy, describe the core
    principle of utilitarianism and discuss the
    problem of the tyranny of the majority. Find a
    real example of a current or past social
    practice, (or create your own fictional example)
    that illustrates this problem. Complete your
    post by evaluating whether the overall good
    generated by the practice outweighs the suffering
    caused by the practice.

  • PHI 208 Week 2 Discussion 1 (basic principle of
    equality)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • Singer reasons for what he calls the basic
    principle of equality. What is this principle
    and how is it supposed to be applied? What
    reasoning does he give that this principle should
    be applied to non-human animals? Do you agree? On
    what basis do you think we should determine which
    types of beings should be treated with equal
    moral consideration?

    Singer)

  •  
  • Tom Regan and Peter Singer disagree about the
    best approach to animal ethics. What basic things
    do they agree about?
  • What do they disagree about?

PHI 208 (Ash) Possible Is Everything/newtonhelp
  • PHI 208 Week 2 Discussion 1 Peter Singer and
    Animal Rights
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  • Peter Singer argues that eating meat is
    speciesism because it involves sacrificing the
    most important interests of members of other
    species for relatively trivial interests of our
    own species. Do you think Singer is correct or
    incorrect on this point? Is "speciesism" a real
    thing like racism or sexism? Why or why not?

  • PHI 208 Week 2 Discussion 2 (Drones)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • After watching the videos Drones are Ethical
    and Drones are Not Ethical, provide at least
    one argument to show that the use of drones can
    be justified by utilitarian reasoning.
  • And one argument to show that the use of drones
    cannot be justified by such reasoning.

PHI 208 (Ash) Possible Is Everything/newtonhelp
  • PHI 208 Week 2 Discussion 2 (Primary Goal)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • If the primary goal of utilitarianism is to
    generate the greatest good for the greatest
    number, a secondary goal is to minimize
    suffering. Using at least one quote from one of
    the required readings, discuss the ways in which
    these two principles are consistent or
    inconsistent with each other. If you think they
    are consistent, provide a real or imagined
    example that illustrates this consistency.

  • PHI 208 Week 2 Discussion 2 (Singer and Moral
    Justification)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • Singer argues that there is no moral
    justification for denying moral consideration to
    animals. Can you think of a good moral reason why
    our moral consideration should include all
    humans, even those without the ability to reason,
    yet be denied to all non-human animals (some of
    whom have that ability)? What response might he
    have to your way of drawing the line between the
    types of beings that should get moral
    consideration and those that should not?

  • PHI 208 Week 2 Discussion 2 (Tom Regan)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  •  
  • Tom Regan says that we all have equal inherent
    value by virtue of being experiencing subjects
    of a life. What does it mean to be an
    experiencing subject of a life? Do you think
    that being the subject of a life means that one
    has equal inherent value? Does it follow from
    that view that animals should be given rights to
    life and freedom?

  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • Think of someone real or fictional whom some
    people regard as a hero for helping others,
    stopping something bad or evil, and so forth,
    even though by doing so they violated what would
    normally be considered a moral rule (focus on
    morality don't simply think of someone who broke
    the law).

PHI 208 (Ash) Possible Is Everything/newtonhelp
  • PHI 208 Week 3 Discussion (Kant Right Action)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • Kant famously states that the only thing good
    without qualification is a good will. On this
    basis, he holds that we can do the right action
    but not out of a good will, and that only actions
    done from a good will are morally praiseworthy.
    Do you agree with Kant? Provide an example (real
    or made up) of someone doing a good thing but out
    of a motive other than that of a good will, and
    give reasons for why you think Kant is right

PHI 208 (Ash) Possible Is Everything/newtonhelp
  • PHI 208 Week 3 Discussion (Kants formulations)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • One of Kants formulations of the Categorical
    Imperative says that one should always treat
    humanity, whether in oneself or in another,
    always as an end and never merely as a means.
    Briefly explain what that means. Consider a
    specific example from the world of business,
    either one that you have directly encountered or
    one you heard or read about, in which a company
    honored this principle, and consider another
    example in which a company failed to honor this
    principle.

    lie)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  •  
  • Is it ever morally permissible to lie to someone?
    Describe a circumstance in which it seems that
    lying might make more people happy than telling
    the truth. Would lying be the right thing to do
    in that circumstance, or is it our moral duty to
    tell the truth, even then? Consider what
    Immanuel Kant would say, and explain that with
    reference to this weeks readings.

  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  •  
  • Aristotle says that the virtues are necessary for
    humans to attain happiness, but he means this in
    terms of something we might call flourishing or
    living well, which he considers quite different
    than simply feeling good. Thus, according to
    Aristotle some people might feel that they are
    happy, but because they lack the virtues they are
    not truly flourishing.

    eudaimonia)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  •  
  • Is it possible for individuals to flourish if
    others with whom they are connected are not also
    flourishing? Consider this with respect to
    Aristotles account of eudaimonia, as well as the
    other readings and media. Identify a community
    or practice in which you are involved in which
    the flourishing of the individual is tied to the
    flourishing of others.

    ethics)
  • For more course tutorials visit
  • www.newtonhelp.com
  •  
  • An important aspect of Aristotles virtue ethics
    is the idea that virtues are habits that we
    acquire over time, and like any habit, virtues
    affect not just what we do, but our desires and
    emotions as well. Focusing on either Hills
    article or Robinsons article, how might this be
    important when discussing environmental ethics or
    military ethics (focus your discussion on just
    one of those, but feel free to discuss the other
    in reply to other peoples posts)?

    goods in human life these virtues enable their
    possessor to fulfill. Provide examples of

    virtues, and contrast that with behavior that
    displays a lack of virtue.
