Discussion Post: Identifying Morals
In this discussion post, we will be doing ethics... in other words exploring the idea of morality, which "refers to beliefs concerning right and wrong, good and bad - beliefs that can include judgements, values, rules, principles, and theories" (Vaughn 13).
Task
After reading Chapter 1 in Beginning Ethics, think about were your specific morals come from and discuss them in a discussion post. Please do the following in your writing, in paragraph (essay) form:
I. Using the textbook, define/explain the idea of moral beliefs and identify your own. What are some of the values, rules, or principles that you apply to decide what is right or wrong, good or bad? Give five specific examples. Hone in on one or two specific moral beliefs/values in your writing and discuss them in depth. Get the instant assignment help.
II. Discuss where these beliefs come from. Be specific and give examples of how these beliefs developed or how you came to adopt them. Do your moral beliefs come from yourself (personal experiences), your family, your culture (religion), your society?
III. Apply your morals. When do you use these morals? Describe and evaluate a specific situation in which your morals were tested.
