There is no doubt that in every office or social setting there are certain groups that stick together and have developed a certain loyalty to each other, even when the behavior of the group is seen as immoral or unethical. Does this constitute a moral right to speak up and break that trust? People should address situations within their group where others act in immoral ways regardless of the outcome. It is morally right to call out immorality; to stand silent is like agreeing with the…

In 'Moderate Moralism', Carroll (1996) argues that artistic autonomy does not preclude a moral approach to artworks. That is, unlike autonomism, which holds that aesthetic evaluations of artworks are always autonomous from moral components, some works of art trade in moral emotions as part of their aesthetic form. In this analysis I will briefly explain Carroll's argument, which focuses on narrative artworks, and is contrasted with autonomism in both its radical and moderate forms. Although…
aspects like appearance, ethnicity, religion, virtues, you're decisions and morals. Morality is a huge role in creating your identity because I personally think it’s the most important one. Moral’s are the key to everything, the key to good friendships, relationships, habits and more. A unmoral human compared to a moral human is a big difference, when you don't have morals everything is a ripple effect. As a person with no morals you are repeatedly practicing you're vices and you're bad…

You have a solid understanding of what the moral lesson or what the teaching is from every story and it will always relate to your life, you never have to worry about reading something that may be misleading or that doesn’t apply to society. "Nobody believes a liar...even when he is telling the…
Jodi Lynn Anderson, author of Tiger Lily wrote “To not do what you can to protect someone, that's cowardly” (Anderson 1). If an individual has the ability to protect someone that they love, then it is that individual’s duty to use that ability. No matter how small the individual or how much of an outcast the individual may be, he or she still has the ability to make sacrifices and protect those whom they care about. In “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” by Mark Twain, Jim, although considered…
The first line of criticism is reasonable. Because we apply moral criticism to someone’s moral sentiments, on the assumption that they are capable of improvement, and that they reflect moral credit or discredit on a person . Hutcheson tries to explain some criticisms of a particular agent’s moral sense, by reference to the moral sense of the ‘normal’ observer. For Hutcheson ‘normal’ just means ‘statistically most frequent’. Though Smith objects this, he never put forward something more to…
A flawed moral code is almost guaranteed because of the limitations of ethics and ethical theories (that we have so far) which have not yet been overcome with an objective solution by philosophers and theorists. Without having full consciousness of the significance or context of our actions, could we still have moral responsibility (Edmonds)? If a person with somnambulism (sleepwalking disorder) does something unconsciously, can they be held morally responsible for it (Edmonds)? Moral…
the past theories. In this paper, it will be explain and review Ross theory of right conduct, how it differs from all the other theories, and how we can apply it. The main difference between Ross theory of right conduct and the previously viewed moral theories, such as consequentialism and utilitarianism, is that amount of pleasure is not the entire thing use to judge for what is morally right to do.

one’s appearance can have about an individual’s moral standpoint of being a good or bad person as ultimately, there is no definite answer as they coexist in each person regardless of appearance. Throughout the three pieces, I depicted one generic human figure that did not feature any human characteristics. This enabled the triptych to appeal to a diverse group of viewers. Each piece contains an element or symbolism to help identify it as one of the moral standpoints of “good” or “bad”. The…
