    Carson Hawk Putman Hour 2 & 6 15 November 2016 Argument Paper Ethic are standards of rights and wrongs that guide us as humans what to do, and what not to do. They allow us to make decisions that are not going to harm us in the future, or hurt us in any way shape or form. The doctors in a story called Flowers For Algernon do not listen to ethics. They are using a special surgery to make a man named Charlie Gordon with an I.Q. of 68 to triple his intelligence to give him the intellect of a genius.

    The Preliminary Ethic Survey is a thought-provoking way to discover a person’s views regarding a moral question. As I am taking the survey, I had to briefly stop and deliberate some of the questions. The way I answered the questions was to consider all scenarios involved in the question before finalizing my answer. I must admit that some question was particularly difficult to answer because it requires a higher level of reasoning. It appears that certain questions could be interpreted dissimilar ways by different people.…

    One must constantly go through the process of introspection in order to live an examined life to not be swayed by popular opinion but instead become knowledgeable of the world around them and the self. For Socrates, to care for the soul is the most crucial responsibility in life because of his belief that the soul of an individual is the true being of who a person really is. Throughout the book of Plato’s Five Dialogues, Socrates constantly questions society’s ethics and emphasizes how important it is for one to question and examine the world around them in order to care for the soul. Those who choose to live an unexamined life are losing the chance of attaining knowledge and becoming corrupted by choosing to live blindly based on popular opinion instead of their own beliefs. In order for people to live the good life,…

I don’t think I consciously realized such a thing actually existed, let alone recognized an ability to define it.
