Beginning to Understand Ethics In two or three brief, clear sentences answer the following questions. 1. Ethics is a part of philosophy. What is the basic question of ethics? Ans: The basic question of ethics is what shall I do? Or what is the moral thing to do, or what my duty is as an individual. 2. Describe ethics as emotivism. Ans: In ethics it dealEthics deals with one moral belief but emotivism deals with just and expression of how a person feels and may express themhim or her self. 3. Describe ethics as cultural relativism. ANS: In describing ethics as cultural relativism belief that consequence does not define truth nothing is objectively right or wrong and that the definition of right or wrong depends on the prevailing view of a particular individual, culture, or historical period and view. This is a confusing run-on sentence. Rewrite it as short , clear sentences. Make sure each sentence has a subject and a verb. 4. Describe ethics as subjectivism. ANS: what ethical subjectivism is compatible with moral absolutism, in that the individual or society to whose attitudes moral propositions refer can hold some moral principle to apply regardless of circumstances? (That is, a moral principle can be relative to an individual, but not relative to circumstances). Ethical subjectivism is also compatible with moral relativism when that is taken to mean the opposite of absolutism, that is, as the claim that moral precepts should be adjusted to circumstances, as in consequentialism. Use the Power Point to get the basic information you need to answer this question. Be careful not to copy text from the internet or any other source without citing it. If you write an answer in an assignment or a test, you must be able to explain it to me in person. 5. If ethics is not a matter of feeling or opinion, what do you believe is the real foundation or root of ethics? ANS: The real foundation or roots of ethics to me come from ones culture; also it could be what our creator already hid in our hearts, even what one have learn in studying different cultures. This answer is great. It indicates that you are considering what the real answer might be for you. As we learn more keep this question in mind.
