Objection

God, Design, and Critiques When discussing the arguments from design for God’s existence a few names transcend into our thoughts higher than the others. St. Thomas Aquinas, William Paley, and David Hume are these people. Aquinas was born in the year 1225 and was a Dominican monk. Paley was born in 1743 and worked as the archdeacon of Carlisle. Hume was a skeptical empiricist born in Scotland in 1711. They have used their brain power to write various literature discussing whether the design we…

Often, we as people, are faced with a difficult question: is it morally right or morally wrong to eat meat. Alastair Norcross discusses this in his article, “Puppies, Pigs, and People: Eating Meat and Marginal Cases.” In this article Norcross tells the story of Fred, a man who lost the ability to taste chocolate due to a car accident. He sets up twenty-six cages of puppies, and leads them to live stress induced lives. This is because when the puppies are under stress, they produce a hormone…

maintain comfortable lifestyles are morally obligated to distribute a portion of their wealth or excess food and supplies to those in need. My objection consists of two main arguments, the first being that those who are financially secure may be responsible for the impoverishment of others as a result of their consumption habits. The second component of my objection is that people should be morally obligated to distribute any excess money, food, or supplies they feel that they are able to…

In Article 2, Aquinas answers the question on whether man’s happiness consists in honors. It starts of with an objection that it would seem that man’s happiness consists in honors because with honor, virtue is rewarded. Aquinas disagrees and states that honor is not in the honored man, but the person who honors.

Accounting to Berkeley’s argument,…
