Utilitarianism is a moral theory in which a “good action” takes into account the greatest overall happiness for the greatest number of people. The most essential feature of utilitarianism is that it is “a goal-oriented moral theory because it places all of its emphasis on the actual consequences of moral rules and principles, and insists that they be justified only by appeal to how happy they make us”. To further explain, utilitarianism justifies the actions and decisions made by focusing on the…

In The York Corpus Christi Play: The Crucifixion, Jesus speaks only two times in the three-hundred lines. The rest of the dialogue is between the four soldiers who are attempting to crucify him. There is an odd dark humor among the soldiers while they are crucifying Jesus. More interesting, however, is Jesus’ response to his crucifixion. The first time he speaks his words are directed at God only. The second time he speaks, the first half of his text is directed at man, while he still ends with…

During the year 326, St. Helena and Constantine ordered the town to build a church right over the cave where Jesus was born. The project – the Church of the Nativity – was finished on May 31, 339. Not only did Jesus’ birth take place under the church, but St. Jerome was actually buried underneath the church as well in Bethlehem. Later on, in 530 A.D., Justinian had the church destroyed. In place of it, he built a bigger church. The church Justinian built is the one there today. The Persians…

This was our first week in man 3105, this unit has brought to into light different theories that are important to understand considering business ethics. They were a couple of theories that grabbed my attention and concepts. I would like to explore the consequentialist and non-consequentialist theories. The Utilitarianism theory is one I’m familiar with, but the week one module has explained it in a better way with the incorporation of the trolley dilemma. The objective of utilitarian morals…

2: Jesus cried out "My God! My God! Why Have You Forsaken Me!?" While Hanging On The Cross. Matthew 27 records this. Highly improbable Matthew would make up this saying and put it into Jesus' mouth since it makes it look like Jesus doesn't trust the Father, and it makes it look like Jesus forgot His mission. Why did Jesus say this? He quoted the first verse of Psalm 22 verbatim. This is a messianic Psalm according to most biblical scholars. When you cross-examine (pun intended) Psalm 22 with…

Peter Griffin: The Not So Typical Family Guy Pedophilia, mental disabilities, and terrorism are not usually the first thoughts that come to mind when a person contemplate comedy. Despite this fact, they are all subjects I have witnessed the well-known television show Family Guy poke fun at. This show represents a father, Peter Griffin, and his family and all of the ridiculous circumstances they put themselves in. While the majority of people do not find these subjects funny, they still find the…

“ I couldn’t possibly write Jaws today at least, not in a good conscience anyway,” said Peter Benchley, the author of Jaws. On the other hand, all sharks are different from each other, just like the saying “no two snowflakes are the same” I think it’s the same with sharks no two sharks are the same. However, sharks make me think because they all have their own different identities and none are exactly the same and I wish to have a baby shark sometime in my lifetime. Better yet, I would want a…
