Ethics

Ethics Ethics is something very hard to be defined in one document, even by some of the greatest philosophers of all time. Although it would be wonderful if we all were utilitarian, I don’t think it is possible. That is simply because human nature is that we put ourselves a little bit higher than everyone else. Some people put themselves on a level much higher than others and some put themselves just above others. I myself care for the fellow man but just as discussed in the book, I care more for family and friends safety than I do for the strangers. I should not however, because they are no better or worse than my family, friends, or me. If everyone was utilitarian everyone would take care of one another, therefore creating a balance of life. Hobbes’ “Social Contract” is a wonderful piece of work and I believe states a lot of truth. This document has and will continue to open many eyes. The cooperation in society is vital to achieving the desires that we humans strive for.
