Because of Hare 's negative view of selfishness the phrase “our good” cannot mean “our benefit”. Therefore it must mean something like “our values”. If this is the case, what does it mean to trust that obedience is consistent with what we find valuable? It means that no one fully knows what actions are best to take. We must trust that obedience is what is best for…

Value of life What is the value of life? The value of life can be seen in many different perspectives. Common sense seems to dictate that the value of life is based on financial income not morality. Many people assume that there is no sense of morality when they put a price on a life. We live in a world where people come from different cultures, morals, and traditions; it is impossible for us to be the same. Every life is worth the same. No life is worth the same. Some lives are worth less…

The outcomes of our happiness will not be seen as instant karma for our children, but by what world is left for them to flourish in. Moreover, this world is not ours, we are only temporary residents of…

Stories are well suited for discussing moral values because stories help readers learn where our moral beliefs and foundations came and continue to come from.
