Rational function

the focus is to independently characterize what is good from what is right. This means that the action is determined by the consequences that follow, unlike Aristotle’s sole focus on getting it “right” or eudaimonia being unidentified until a human function is identified.

interesting feature regarding theories is how they change over the course of time. Theories change over time because we increase in knowledge, the state of being aware of something, and are able to determine fact from opinion. Reasoning on the basis of rational thinking was introduced during the Enlightenment time period. It was in this time period that Enlightenment thinkers presumed that humans could understand the world through science. The Enlightenment time period gave light to Classical…
