Persons and their copies. (1/615)

Is cloning human beings morally wrong? The basis for the one serious objection to cloning is that, because of what a clone is, clones would have much worse lives than non-clones. I sketch a fragment of moral theory to make sense of the objection. I then outline several ways in which it might be claimed that, because of what a clone is, clones would have much worse lives than non-clones. In particular, I look at various ideas connected with autonomy. I conclude that there is no basis to the claim that, because of what a clone is, clones would have much worse lives than non-clones. I therefore reject the claim that cloning human beings is morally wrong.  (+info)

Genetics and the British insurance industry. (2/615)

Genetics and genetic testing raise key issues for insurance and employment. Governmental and public concern galvanised the British insurance industry into developing a code of practice. The history of the development of the code, issues of genetic discrimination, access to medical information, consent and the dangers of withholding information and the impact on the equity of pooled risk are explored. Proactive steps by the Association of British Insurers suggest that moral reflection not legislation is the way forward.  (+info)

Indigenous peoples and the morality of the Human Genome Diversity Project. (3/615)

In addition to the aim of mapping and sequencing one human's genome, the Human Genome Project also intends to characterise the genetic diversity of the world's peoples. The Human Genome Diversity Project raises political, economic and ethical issues. These intersect clearly when the genomes under study are those of indigenous peoples who are already subject to serious economic, legal and/or social disadvantage and discrimination. The fact that some individuals associated with the project have made dismissive comments about indigenous peoples has confused rather than illuminated the deeper issues involved, as well as causing much antagonism among indigenous peoples. There are more serious ethical issues raised by the project for all geneticists, including those who are sympathetic to the problems of indigenous peoples. With particular attention to the history and attitudes of Australian indigenous peoples, we argue that the Human Genome Diversity Project can only proceed if those who further its objectives simultaneously: respect the cultural beliefs of indigenous peoples; publicly support the efforts of indigenous peoples to achieve respect and equality; express respect by a rigorous understanding of the meaning of equitable negotiation of consent, and ensure that both immediate and long term economic benefits from the research flow back to the groups taking part.  (+info)

Moral concerns of different types of patients in clinical BRCA1/2 gene mutation testing. (4/615)

PURPOSE: Implementing predictive genetic testing for a severe and common chronic disease such as breast cancer may raise unique ethical problems. Here we report on moral concerns experienced by patients in the setting of genetic counseling based on BRCA1/2 gene testing. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients were members of breast or breast/ovarian cancer families in a consecutive series of 100 families who received counseling at a familial cancer clinic. The patients' moral concerns were identified using the grounded theory approach in the qualitative analysis of verbal transcripts of 45 counseling sessions. Included were sessions with patients who had breast and ovarian cancer, as well as their male and female relatives, before and after the specific BRCA1/2 gene mutation was identified in the family, and before and after those who opted for mutation analysis were informed of their carrier status. RESULTS: There is an association of BRCA1/2 gene mutation carrier status and specific topics of moral concern. The moral preoccupations of patients with breast and ovarian cancer (probable carriers) related to their being instrumental in the detection of the specific mutation segregating in the family. The preoccupations of possible carriers concerned their own offspring. Individuals who tested positive (proven carriers) were concerned with issues of confidentiality. Patients who tested negative (proven noncarriers) were concerned with helping siblings and other relatives. CONCLUSION: Knowledge of the moral concerns of subjects in the study sample may help health care providers be aware of the moral concerns of their own patients. This report may also contribute to the debate on predictive testing for familial adult-onset diseases from the patient's perspective.  (+info)

Equitable rationing of highly specialised health care services for children: a perspective from South Africa. (5/615)

The principles of equality and equity, respectively in the Bill of Rights and the white paper on health, provide the moral and legal foundations for future health care for children in South Africa. However, given extreme health care need and scarce resources, the government faces formidable obstacles if it hopes to achieve a just allocation of public health care resources, especially among children in need of highly specialised health care. In this regard, there is a dearth of moral analysis which is practically useful in the South African situation. We offer a set of moral considerations to guide the macro-allocation of highly specialised public health care services among South Africa's children. We also mention moral considerations which should inform micro-allocation.  (+info)

Protective truthfulness: the Chinese way of safeguarding patients in informed treatment decisions. (6/615)

The first part of this paper examines the practice of informed treatment decisions in the protective medical system in China today. The second part examines how health care professionals in China perceive and carry out their responsibilities when relaying information to vulnerable patients, based on the findings of an empirical study that I had undertaken to examine the moral experience of nurses in practice situations. In the Chinese medical ethics tradition, refinement [jing] in skills and sincerity [cheng] in relating to patients are two cardinal virtues that health care professionals are required to possess. This notion of absolute sincerity carries a strong sense of parental protectiveness. The empirical findings reveal that most nurses are ambivalent about telling the truth to patients. Truth-telling would become an insincere act if a patient were to lose hope and confidence in life after learning of his or her disease. In this system of protective medical care, it is arguable as to whose interests are being protected: the patient, the family or the hospital. I would suggest that the interests of the hospital and the family members who legitimately represent the patient's interests are being honoured, but at the expense of the patient's right to know.  (+info)

In defence of medical ethics. (7/615)

A number of recent publications by the philosopher David Seedhouse are discussed. Although medicine is an eminently ethical enterprise, the technical and ethical aspects of health care practices can be distinguished, therefore justifying the existence of medical ethics and its teaching as a specific part of every medical curriculum. The goal of teaching medical ethics is to make health care practitioners aware of the essential ethical aspects of their work. Furthermore, the contention that rational bioethics is a fruitless enterprise because it analyses non-rational social events seems neither theoretically tenable nor to be borne out by actual practice. Medical ethics in particular and bioethics in general, constitute a field of expertise that must make itself understandable and convincing to relevant audiences in health care.  (+info)

The virtue of nursing: the covenant of care. (8/615)

It is argued that the current confusion about the role and purpose of the British nurse is a consequence of the modern rejection and consequent fragmentation of the inherited nursing tradition. The nature of this tradition, in which nurses were inducted into the moral virtues of care, is examined and its relevance to patient welfare is demonstrated. Practical suggestions are made as to how this moral tradition might be reappropriated and reinvigorated for modern nursing.  (+info)

The Splintered Mind: The Moral Behavior of Ethicists and the Rationalist DelusionThe Splintered Mind: The Moral Behavior of Ethicists and the Rationalist Delusion
A new essay with Joshua Rust.. In the first part, we summarize our empirical research on the moral behavior of ethics professors.. In the second part, we consider five possible explanations of our finding that ethics professors behave, on average, no better than do other professors.. Explanation 1: Philosophical moral reflection has no material impact on real-world moral behavior. Jonathan Haidt has called the view that explicit moral reflection does have a substantial effect on ones behavior the rationalist delusion.. Explanation 2: Philosophical moral reflection influences real world moral behavior, but only in very limited domains of professional focus. Those domains are sufficiently narrow and limited that existing behavioral measures cant unequivocally detect them. Also, possibly, any improvement in such narrow domains might be cancelled out, in terms of overall moral behavior, by psychological factors like moral licensing or ego depletion.. Explanation 3: Philosophical moral reflection ...

Atheist Ethicist: The Foundation of Moral ValueAtheist Ethicist: The Foundation of Moral Value
Of course we have independent means of determining whether or not something has moral value. That is why we know that the suggestion that a turnip has greater moral value than a human child is absurd. We know, just as an example, that being a subject of conscious states is relevant to whether something has moral value. (And one reason for this is that the capacity for consciousness is a requirement for the capacity of being the subject of states, such as pleasure and pain, that have intrinsic value). So, we know, on this basis, that if the detector indicates that something that is incapable of conscious experience (say, a turnip) has more value than something that is capable of conscious experience (a child), then the detector is not detecting value. ...

Moral Reasoning (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)Moral Reasoning (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
Moral considerations often conflict with one another. So do moral principles and moral commitments. Assuming that filial loyalty and patriotism are moral considerations, then Sartres student faces a moral conflict. Recall that it is one thing to model the metaphysics of morality or the truth conditions of moral statements and another to give an account of moral reasoning. In now looking at conflicting considerations, our interest here remains with the latter and not the former. Our principal interest is in ways that we need to structure or think about conflicting considerations in order to negotiate well our reasoning involving them. One influential building-block for thinking about moral conflicts is W. D. Rosss notion of a prima facie duty. Although this term misleadingly suggests mere appearance - the way things seem at first glance - it has stuck. Some moral philosophers prefer the term pro tanto duty (e.g., Hurley 1989). Ross explained that his term provides a brief way of referring ...

Surely just about everybody has faced a moral dilemma and secretly wished, If only somebody - somebody I trusted - could just tell me what to do! Wouldnt this be morally inauthentic? Arent we responsible for making our own moral decisions? Yes, but the virtues of do it yourself moral reasoning have their limits, and if you decide, after conscientious consideration, that your moral decision is to delegate further moral decisions in your life to a trusted expert, then you have made your own moral decision. You have decided to take advantage of the division of labor that civilization makes possible and get the help of expert specialists.. We applaud the wisdom of this course in all other important areas of decision-making (dont try to be your own doctor, the lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client, and so forth).

Patterns of neural activity associated with honest and dishonest moral decisions | PNASPatterns of neural activity associated with honest and dishonest moral decisions | PNAS
The behavioral and fMRI data support the Grace hypothesis over the Will hypothesis, suggesting that honest moral decisions depend more on the absence of temptation than on the active resistance of temptation. Individuals who behaved honestly showed no sign of engaging additional controlled cognitive processes when choosing to behave honestly. These individuals exhibited no additional neural activity of any kind when they chose to forgo opportunities for dishonest gain, as compared with control trials in which there was no such opportunity. We provided a more stringent test of this negative result by dramatically reducing the statistical threshold for this comparison, focusing on brain regions that exhibited effects for this comparison in dishonest subjects (Fig. 3B). This more-stringent test also revealed no effects, and further tests (group × contrast interaction) confirmed that the honest and dishonest subjects exhibited different patterns of activity in these regions. The RT data support the ...

Atheism: Proving The Negative: The Illusion of Moral Guidance from GodAtheism: Proving The Negative: The Illusion of Moral Guidance from God
So whats happening is that our moral inquiries are actually more rudderless than we know, and to ill effect. Theres nothing wrong with changing our minds, or reflecting on new evidence. Quite the contrary, we should gather as many relevant considerations as possible for moral decisions and then be prepared to alter our views. Whats dangerous is being oblivious to the organic nature of how our cognitive faculties produce these ideas and being ignorant of our tenedency to create revisionist histories. And whats even more dangerous is the tendency to attribute these shifting moral decisions to an almighty, supernatural being who will enforce them, whatever they happen to be that day, with eternal damnation. Putting God into the process adds a level of false certainty, and ignores its fluid, constructive nature. It also ignores the fact that our moral judgments should be defeasible and that a moral principle or judgment that seemed to work well in the past may not capture the subtleties of ...

Following the increasing civil and military deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles, an intense public debate on the positive and negative effects of drones has emerged. The ECIS symposium Mediating morality: Using unmanned aerial systems for decision making in moral situations focuses on how the use of drones affects decision-making in moral situations. Current research in moral philosophy and moral psychology provides no clear answers regarding the effects that drones have on moral decision making. The aim of the workshop is to bring together stakeholders and researchers in the field of technology, philosophy and psychology to discuss the consequences of using drones. The goal of the symposium is to share insights from theory and practice on technological mediation in moral situations and combine insights from these diverse disciplines to guide future interdisciplinary work.. ...

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness - InterVarsity PressPursuing Moral Faithfulness - InterVarsity Press
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis.. Even though people make moral decisions every day, many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a morally faithful life. Compared to the people around them, there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go about making moral choices.. As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades of pastoral experience, who has also spent years teaching ethics to undergraduates, Gary Tyra approaches the topic with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and encouraging an everyday moral faithfulness. Tyra argues that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered, Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in any moral situation. Moral faithfulness follows from a life of Christian discipleship.. In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion, Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign of hope for the future.. ...

Always a burden? Healthcare providers perspectives on moral distress | ADC Fetal & Neonatal EditionAlways a burden? Healthcare providers perspectives on moral distress | ADC Fetal & Neonatal Edition
Results A total of 345 healthcare providers from two NICUs participated (80% response rate): 286 nurses and 59 medical providers. Moral distress was correctly identified as constrained moral judgement resulting in distress by 93% of participants. However, in practice the term moral distress was also used as an umbrella term to articulate different forms of distress. Moral distress was experienced by 72% of providers at least once a month. Yet despite the negative sequelae of moral distress, few (8% medical, 21% nursing providers) thought that moral distress should be eliminated from the NICU. Open-ended responses revealed that while interventions were desired to decrease the negative impacts of moral distress, moral distress was also viewed as an essential component of the caring profession that prompts robust discussion and acts as an impetus for medical decision-making. ...

Peoples moods can influence moral judgment. Such influences may arise because moods affect moral emotion, or because moods affect moral thought. The present study provides evidence that, at least in the footbridge dilemma, moods affect moral thought. The results of two experiments are reported in which, after induction of positive, negative, or neutral moods and presentation of the footbridge scenario, participants were asked one of two differentially framed closing questions. In the active frame, participants were asked whether they would be active and push the man, making thoughts about pushing accessible; in the passive frame, they were asked whether they would be passive and not push the man, making thoughts about not pushing accessible. The results show that affective influences on moral judgment depended on participants decision frame. Compared to neutral moods, positive moods induced utilitarian responding--i.e., deciding to push--in the active decision frame, but induced

Using a foreign language changes moral decisionsUsing a foreign language changes moral decisions
Would you sacrifice one person to save five? Such moral choices could depend on whether you are using a foreign language or your native tongue.. A new study from psychologists at the University of Chicago and Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona finds that people using a foreign language take a relatively utilitarian approach to moral dilemmas, making decisions based on assessments of whats best for the common good. That pattern holds even when the utilitarian choice would produce an emotionally difficult outcome, such as sacrificing one life so others could live.. This discovery has important consequences for our globalized world, as many individuals make moral judgments in both native and foreign languages, said Boaz Keysar, professor of psychology at UChicago. The real-world implications could include an immigrant serving as a jury member in a trial, who may approach decision-making differently than a native English speaker. Leading author Albert Costa, a UPF psychologist, added that ...

John Blanton | North Texas SkepticsJohn Blanton | North Texas Skeptics
Moral relativism, according to Meyer and also according to most who give thought to the matter, holds there is no fixed and true morality. Moral values are at best set by societies and in the worst cases are set by individuals. Individuals who set their own moral values may become social outcasts and usually do harm to themselves, with harm being a relative term.. We apparently do not receive moral values from evolutionary biology, Meyer argues, and here he is almost completely right. I stated previously (Episode 9) that an inherited moral trait seems to be that mothers do not kill their children. This is definitely something that would be selected for in Darwinian evolution. What then, of the moral issue of not taking other peoples stuff? If you can make a good living by stealing, then you can live a good life without having to spend hours a day working, and you can get yourself a good-looking woman and send your genes deeply into the pool. Meyer makes this point, but those are my words. Lets ...

We have to lay out the orbits in terms of the life of the satellite, and where the planets will be so the whole thing will not bog down!

We aimed to advance understanding of these processes by examining moral judgement in individuals with schizophrenia, a population characterised by social-cognitive deficits and interpersonal difficulties. Forty-five patients with schizophrenia and 27 healthy controls judged high-conflict moral dilemmas in response to 3rd-person (i.e. Is it morally okay to [perform X]?) and 1st-person (i.e. Would you [perform X]?) probes. Controls were less utilitarian for 3rd-person than 1st-person probes, while this discrepancy did not hold for patients. Utilitarianism in patients correlated with higher levels of interpersonal conflict. Findings suggest that people with schizophrenia focus equally on ...

Detroit Area Study, 1956: Orientation on Moral Issues in a Metropolis and The Meaning of WorkDetroit Area Study, 1956: Orientation on Moral Issues in a Metropolis and The Meaning of Work
This study of 797 adults in the Detroit metropolitan area provides information on their attitudes toward work and their motivations for working, as well as their orientation toward many social and political issues. The study was a combination of two separate studies: ORIENTATION ON MORAL ISSUES IN A METROPOLIS by Robert Angell, and THE MEANING OF WORK by Robert Kahn and Robert Weiss. Respondents were asked about the importance of work in their life, the things in their job that made them feel important, the things they wanted from their job that it did not provide, the other areas of their life that made them feel useful, and the people in their lives that influenced their choice of occupation. A number of questions that focused on women working outside the home probed respondents feelings about how a husband was affected by a working wife, and if there were kinds of jobs that women should not have. Other questions probed respondents views about what the United States should do in the event of ...

PEP Web - Preschoolers Face Moral Dilemmas: A Longitudinal Study Of Acknowledging And Resolving Internal ConflictPEP Web - Preschoolers Face Moral Dilemmas: A Longitudinal Study Of Acknowledging And Resolving Internal Conflict
Following on from research that indicated significant moral internalisations by age 3, using a play narrative approach in which children were asked to complete story stems describing a range of moral dilemmas, the purpose of this study was to replicate the results, extend them with longitudinal information and assess the childs developing capacities to acknowledge both sides of moral dilemmas and resolve them in a prosocial way. Fifty-one children were presented with three enacted story stems describing moral dilemmas as they might occur in everyday life. Story completions were obtained from children at ages 3, 4, and 5 and were coded for the level of acknowledgement of the dilemmas and the degree of prosocialness involved in story resolution. Results included the following: firstly, some children acknowledged the dilemmas and resolved them prosocially as early as age 3; secondly, the ability to acknowledge dilemmas and resolve them improved with age; and thirdly, children showed a greater ...

One recent study with moral dilemmas suggested that testosterone administration increases utilitarian judgments, which depends on second-to-fourth (2D: 4D) digit ratio, as a proxy of prenatal priming. However, the neural mechanism by which acute testosterone modulates moral reasoning remains to be determined. Using a placebo-controlled within-subject design, the current study examined the neuromodulatory effect of testosterone in young females by combining moral dilemmas, 2D: 4D, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and subjective ratings of morally laden scenarios. ...

Wallach, Hughes, Hopkins @ The Moral Brain: What Is It? Can It Be Enhanced?Wallach, Hughes, Hopkins @ The Moral Brain: What Is It? Can It Be Enhanced?
Abstract: After the recent explosion of cognitive science research about our moral and social functioning, philosophers began to look at the possibility and desirability of enhancing our moral faculty (Savulescu and Persson, 2008, 2011; Harris, 2010; 2011). But what exactly moral enhancement means, and can neuroscience of morality and moral psychology be helpful in finding ways to enhance our moral faculty? I will examine two challenges to the way evidence from moral psychology was so far used in the debate. First, in the current literature the examples of moral enhancement included enhancing empathy, trust and other traits that may translate into dispositions for pro-social behaviour. However, some have pointed out that prosocial does not equal moral (e.g. Chan and Harris, 2011; Pacholczyk, 2011). I suggest that although the point is convincing, there will also be cases when modifying empathy or trust is indeed conducive to moral outcomes. Consequently, simply pointing out whether an ...

We often think of pain as a physical sensation. But some of the deepest wounds we experience transcend our senses. A common example is the guilt we feel when we violate our own moral code, whether by accident or on purpose. A soldier having to kill in wartime can experience this kind of inner shame. This pain is called Moral Injury. Unlike PTSD, Moral Injury is based on moral judgment rather than fear, and it can happen to anyone. Its critical to be able to recognize and know how to treat it.. The symptoms of Moral Injury can include feeling remorse, outrage, despair, or betrayal. An affected person may seem distant, preoccupied, overworked or irritable. Its important to approach them with an open heart and without judgment. Often, just hearing the term Moral Injury will help them begin to process and integrate their experience..

Moral distress and burnout in caring for older adults during medical school training | BMC Medical Education | Full TextMoral distress and burnout in caring for older adults during medical school training | BMC Medical Education | Full Text
Moral distress is a reason for burnout in healthcare professionals, but the clinical settings in which moral distress is most often experienced by medical students, and whether moral distress is associated with burnout and career choices in medical students is unknown. We assessed moral distress in medical students while caring for older patients, and examined associations with burnout and interest in geriatrics. A cross-sectional survey study of second-, third-, and fourth-year medical students at an American medical school. The survey described 12 potentially morally distressing clinical scenarios involving older adult patients. Students reported if they encountered each scenario, and whether they experienced moral distress, graded on a 1-10 scale. We conducted a principal axis factor analysis to assess the dimensionality of the survey scenarios. A composite moral distress score was calculated as the sum of moral distress scores across all 12 scenarios. Burnout was assessed using the Maslach

What Is Moral? | The Rational Response SquadWhat Is Moral? | The Rational Response Squad
A YouTuber from Australia posed a number of questions designed to stimulate thought on what was a moral response to a dilemma. One of them was the Sophies Choice dilemma. A conversation on the general definition of morality ensued.. Q: I wonder if you may expand on your point about the specific examples given not being moral issues, to stop any further confusion (if you see any)? A: Ill try. As I said before, I think questions of this kind are idle because they really allow no good result. You can make yourself crazy with exercises like this and wind up no wiser than when you started, because there simply IS no correct answer. Or, its entirely possible that you are a deeper thinker than I am. I say that without irony or rancor. Your mind seems to have a facility for philosophy that mine simply doesnt. I get bogged down mentally in philosophical questions, and Im never sure that Ive addressed them well enough.. Q: Ultimately I would say moral decisions are inconveniently subjective ...

Brain Injury Changes Moral Judgment - EvolutionBlogBrain Injury Changes Moral Judgment - EvolutionBlog
The article goes on to describe how this study is consistent with other results showing that a capacity for moral thinking is hardwired into the brain. This is highly significant. The existence of a moral sense in humans has long been cited by theists as evidence for the existence of God. C.S. Lewis famously made this the centerpiece of his argument in Mere Christianity. But it is becoming undeniable that specific regions of the brain are responsible for our capacity for moral reasoning, and that our moral intuitions are merely more highly developed forms of things already present in modern apes.. In this recent post I discussed work regarding the evolution of religion. I argued that the idea that a propensity for religious belief is something that emerged via evolution is easier for atheists to assimilate than it is for theists. I think the same can be said for the findings described here.. Sure, a physical structure in the brain that provides our capacity for moral reasoning might be a gift ...

Geoffrey Sayre-McCord. Ithaca: Cornell University Press, pp. 1-23.. 3. Mackies claims about moral properties are not entirely clear, but his position seems to be, not merely that nothing has a moral property but that there are no moral properties. Insofar as Mackie is committed to the nonexistence of moral properties, the analogy to unicorns is at least somewhat inapt. For arguably there is a property of being unicorn; its just not instantiated-i.e. nothing has it. 4. For a more refined presentation of this and other Humean arguments, as well as more detailed anti-Humean replies, see Shafer-Landau (2003), 122-141. Shafer-Landau presents these arguments as considerations a Humean might offer to undercut what he (Shafer-Landau) takes to be a presumption in favor of anti-Humeanism.(127) 5. See Little (1997) ...

Task-dependent evaluative processing of moral and emotional content during comprehension: an ERP study - Nottingham ePrintsTask-dependent evaluative processing of moral and emotional content during comprehension: an ERP study - Nottingham ePrints
Recently, we showed that when participants passively read about moral transgressions (e.g., adultery) they implicitly engage in the evaluative (good-bad) categorization of incoming information, as indicated by a larger event-related brain potential (ERP) positivity to immoral than moral scenarios (Leuthold, Kunkel, Mackenzie, & Filik, 2015). Behavioral and neuroimaging studies indicated that explicit moral tasks prioritize the semantic-cognitive analysis of incoming information but that implicit tasks, as used in Leuthold et al. (2015), favor their affective processing. Therefore, it is unclear whether an affective categorization process is also involved when participants perform explicit moral judgments. Thus, in two experiments, we used similarly constructed morality and emotion materials for which their moral and emotional content had to be inferred from the context. Target sentences from negative vs. neutral emotional scenarios and from moral vs. immoral scenarios were presented using rapid ...

Philosophy, et cetera: Opposite Day: abortion editionPhilosophy, et cetera: Opposite Day: abortion edition
Many times the abortion debate boils down to pro-choicers saying that the fetus is part of the mother and destroying it is morally equivalent to the mother deciding to have her finger amputated. In other words, it is seen as a private non-moral decision. I argue that ending any life is a fundamentally moral decision and therefore ought to be considered in terms of its morality or immorality. As for the ants in the garage, maybe it is a moral decision. I would argue killing every ant in the world is certainly immoral. Killing a single ant seems quite insignificant to the world but then in the grand scheme of things killing a person is rather insignificant. I certainly have other moral flaws I am worrying about fixing before I worry about whether I should kill an insect but maybe all of us need to think a little bit about how amazing the lives we destroy are whether it is an ant, a frog, a dog or a fetus.

Is a Little Wine Good for the Soul?Is a Little Wine Good for the Soul?
Im going to write plainly. There is hardly a man on this planet who does not know that when trying to seduce a woman, his chances will vastly improve if he can get her to drink first because her reasoning will be clouded and her willpower reduced. A gynecologist recently said that he frequently has women come in with a similar story. Well, I went out and had a few drinks and wasnt thinking too clearly and ended up in bed with a stranger. Now Im scared about AIDS and I want to be tested for HIV. Once I heard a prominent Christian leader publicly state, alcohol is not a moral issue. It is not an issue of weak character...It is not a moral right or wrong. It is not a yes or no issue. It is not a moral negative to drink. Now you may say that alcohol use is not a moral issue, but when a substance reduces my inhibitions, impairs my judgment, and facilitates my decision to engage in immoral behaviour, then it gets dangerously close to being a moral issue. Even a female secular political ...

Moral realism - Routledge Encyclopedia of PhilosophyMoral realism - Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy
Moral realism is the view that there are facts of the matter about which actions are right and which wrong, and about which things are good and which bad. But behind this bald statement lies a wealth of complexity. If one is a full-blown moral realist, one probably accepts the following three claims.. First, moral facts are somehow special and different from other sorts of fact. Realists differ, however, about whether the sort of specialness required is compatible with taking some natural facts to be moral facts. Take, for instance, the natural fact that if we do this action, we will have given someone the help they need. Could this be a moral fact - the same fact as the fact that we ought to do the action? Or must we think of such a natural fact as the natural ground for the (quite different) moral fact that we should do it, that is, as the fact in the world that makes it true that we should act this way?. Second, realists hold that moral facts are independent of any beliefs or thoughts we ...

Moral lesson - The Art and Popular Culture EncyclopediaMoral lesson - The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
A moral lesson is a term in narratology used to denote the educational value of a work. Moral lessons can be found in fables, emblemata, wisdom poetry, exempla, bestiaries and traditional stories. The moral lesson (the moral) is usually found at the end and may be expressed explicitly in a pithy maxim. As an example of the latter, at the end of Aesops fable of the Tortoise and the Hare, in which the plodding and determined tortoise wins a race against the much-faster yet extremely arrogant hare, the moral is slow and steady wins the race. However, it can also be interpreted that arrogance or overconfidence in ones abilities may lead to failure or the loss of an event, race, or contest. Undermining another persons ability based on image is another message or moral trying to be conveyed. The use of stock characters is a means of conveying the moral of the story by eliminating complexity of personality and so spelling out the issues arising in the interplay between the characters, enables the ...

The Measurement of Moral Judgment: Volume 1 - Anne Colby, Lawrence Kohlberg - Google BooksThe Measurement of Moral Judgment: Volume 1 - Anne Colby, Lawrence Kohlberg - Google Books
This work was originally issued as a two-volume set, published in 1987 and 1988. It constitutes the definitive presentation of the system of classifying moral judgment built up by Lawrence Kohlberg and his associates over a period of twenty years. Researchers in human development and education around the world, many of whom have worked with interim versions of the system - indeed, all those seriously interested in understanding the development of moral judgment - will find it a useful and accessible resource. Volume 1 reviews Kohlbergs stage theory, and the large body of research on the significance and utility of his moral stages. Issues of reliability and validity are addressed. The volume ends with detailed instructions for using the reference sections, which are presented in volume 2.

3.) Therefore, God exists.. This is a basic principle of logic called modus ponens. Lets look at premises (1) and (2).. If objective moral values do, in fact, exist, then it inexplicably follows that God also exists. For without God, there would be no standard for objective moral values (i.e., an objective standard for right and wrong acttions, an objective standard for oughts and ought nots. Now, you may say that objective moral values DO NOT, in fact, exist. And if you believe that they do not exist then you must believe that beating a defenseless child is not objectively wrong. It may be wrong for you, but for a drunk father its okay, right? Or we can look at Nazi Germany.

What makes people behave honestly when confronted with opportunities for dishonest gain? Research on the interplay between controlled and automatic processes in decision making suggests 2 hypotheses: According to the Will hypothesis, honesty results from the active resistance of temptation, comparable to the controlled cognitive processes that enable the delay of reward. According to the Grace hypothesis, honesty results from the absence of temptation, consistent with research emphasizing the determination of behavior by the presence or absence of automatic processes. To test these hypotheses, we examined neural activity in individuals confronted with opportunities for dishonest gain. Subjects undergoing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) gained money by accurately predicting the outcomes of computerized coin-flips. In some trials, subjects recorded their predictions in advance. In other trials, subjects were rewarded based on self-reported accuracy, allowing them to gain money ...

Gender Differences in Neural Mechanisms Underlying Moral Judgment of Disgust: A Functional MRI StudyGender Differences in Neural Mechanisms Underlying Moral Judgment of Disgust: A Functional MRI Study
Much recent research has sought to uncover the gender difference in neural mechanism of moral judgment; however, very few researches study the neural gender differences in a specific area of moral judgment. The aim of this functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study was to examine possible gender difference in neural response to (sexual) disgusting pictures versus neutral pictures. Seventeen participants (9 males) were scanned while viewing pictures of tactile intimacy in same-sex and being asked to evaluate whether the behaviors between the stimulus persons in the pictures were morally appropriate or not. Both the neural responses to pictures of tactile intimacy in same-sex between male participants and female participants and the neural response to pictures of male-male tactile intimacy and to pictures of female-female tactile intimacy were examined. The results showed that significantly increased differential activations to the disgusting pictures relative to the neutral pictures were observed

Australia is hell-bent on a course of disturbingly questionable morality, the outgoing head of the Australian Anglican Church said yesterday..

In his opening address to the General Synod in Fremantle, Dr Carnley questioned what the war had done to diminish the threat of terrorism. He said the possible long-term damage done in terms of entrenched hatred of the US and its allies meant Australians were among those who rightly feared for their childrens children and what they might reap in the generation to come. ...

  • Damage to an area near the center of the brain, several inches behind the eyes, transforms the way people make moral judgments in life-or-death situations, scientists are reporting. (scienceblogs.com)
  • Research on the role of emotion/intuition in moral judgments is really heating up. (scienceblogs.com)
  • It stands to reason, then, that if emotion plays a role in moral judgments, damage to the VMPC could have a profound affect on those judgments. (scienceblogs.com)
  • People use moral heuristics too - moral short-cuts, or rules of thumb, that lead to mistaken and even absurd moral judgments. (ssrn.com)

  • Moral motivation is an instance of a more general phenomenon-what we might call normative motivation -for our other normative judgments also typically have some motivating force. (stanford.edu)
  • Although motivating force may be a distinguishing feature of normative judgments, the phenomenon of normative motivation seems most significant in the case of narrowly moral judgments. (stanford.edu)

  • How is it that we are so reliably moved by our moral judgments? (stanford.edu)
  • If we are to explain moral motivation, we will need to understand not only how moral judgments so regularly succeed in motivating, but how they can fail to motivate, sometimes rather spectacularly. (stanford.edu)
  • What are we to make of the "amoralist"-the apparently rational, strong willed individual who seemingly makes moral judgments, while remaining utterly indifferent? (stanford.edu)
  • what is more, their motivation ordinarily shifts to match or "track" changes in their moral judgments. (stanford.edu)
  • It is also true that, on some understandings, moral reasoning directed towards deciding what to do involves forming judgments about what one ought, morally, to do. (stanford.edu)

  • What Are Moral Judgments? (bartleby.com)
  • Widespread and deep moral disagreements are persistently resistant to rational solutions and thus allow for continuing debate over the validity of moral judgments. (bartleby.com)
  • This paper will discuss prominent positions regarding whether moral judgments may be true and false in an absolute sense or a relative sense, in light of the diverse and intense disagreement in moral judgment. (bartleby.com)
Morality15
  • The Moral Landscape: How Science Can Determine Human Values is a 2010 book by Sam Harris , in which the author promotes a science of morality and argues that many thinkers have long confused the relationship between morality, facts, and science. (wikipedia.org)
