Jacob, job well done on your critique. This assignment ties to previous discussion boards in that deontology is a type of unqualified absolutism theory (Geisler, 2010, p. 73). As relating to Alexander’s work, deontology is about "morality of principles, not of consequences" (Van Staveren, 2007, p23). Furthermore, this principle believes that the correct response to a dilemma is the right moral rule (2007, p. 23). The breakdown of deontology into three categories, which you included in your post, was enlightening.
