We all are searching for truth, for what is true. Paul Bloom summed up our lives into this quote, “We are constituted so that simple acts of kindness, such as giving to charity or expressing gratitude, have a positive effect on our long-term moods. The key to the happy life, it seems, is the good life: a life with sustained relationships, challenging work, and connections to community.” Bloom mentions the good life, which urges the questions of what is the good life and how does one achieve it.…

Great People Are Heroes, Not Good People You are not a hero, but do not worry, most people are an average Joe. The people that are selfless, or risk everything to help someone else, and shame others with their courage are the ones we can call heroes. We no longer give honor to the top. Loosely using the term “hero” results in the loss of the true meaning of the word, and how it was once used. Society needs to change the use of “hero” in order to acknowledge real heroes. The term “hero” evolves…

In this paper, I will argue that torturing terrorists is the wrong thing to do. First argument that I would discuss about is that torturing a terrorist is wrong because those who we torture may end up being innocent. Suppose you have captured a man who is torture to gain information and found guilty and thrown to jail for many years and later found out that he is innocent. That means that you have committed a crime. You can’t be so sure if a victim is guilty. You cannot assume that the victim…

Aristotle was an ancient philosopher who had a very careful and well thought out definition of virtue. He believed that virtue is both intellectual and moral. On the intellectual aspect, he believed that virtue takes time and experience. However, on the moral aspect, he believed that virtue came from making it a habit (Nicomachean Ethics p. 71). For example, “men become builders by building houses” (p. 73). The question that arises from this definition is how does one act virtuously? To become…

Euthanasia, is known as assisted suicide, physician-assisted suicide, doctor-assisted dying, and a more not so used term mercy killing, means to take deliberate action of intention of ending a life to relieve suffering (Nordqvist, 2015).

Where it only leave them with the choice of suffering or taking the pain away. The little bit of…

“He who despairs of the human condition is a coward, but he who has hope for it is a fool,"-Albert Camus. The Human Condition represents the ideas, problems, and abilities that people have. People can be capable of great love; but also are capable of hate, torture, rape, and war. The main concern is if humans are innately good or bad. Are humans both good and bad, born with one or the other, or taught to be good or bad? In the fiction dystopian novel, Lord of the Flies, by William Golding,…

Sirius Black once said, “We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are.” Good and evil oppose the meanings of one another. Often in this world, people describe others by either all the positive qualities or by the negative qualities, forgetting that nothing in the world is perfect or completely imperfect.
