The University of North Carolina at Charlotte Professions on the Moral High Ground Professionals must not only be competent; they must be good. Professional misconduct can result from a failure on either score - competence or goodness. Ethical problems can arise because of the special status afforded such individuals. The core problem is typically abuse of one's privileged status. Special conditions afforded most professionals include the following: the profession determines its own standards of education and training practice is often legally recognized by some sign of authority like a license licensing boards are conducted by members of the profession most legislation concerned with the profession is shaped by that profession review of alleged professional misconduct is done by members of that profession practitioners are relatively free of lay evaluation and control. Abuse of any of these special conditions can lead to questions about ethics. In business, ethical questions often concern conflicts of interest, environmental harm, issues of employee and client privacy, product liability, social responsibility, and honesty in sales and marketing. In health care, ethical questions frequently concern client rights and health care provider duties, setting limits on high-cost technology, and establishing a fair distribution of resources in a managed care environment. Lack of careful attention to such matters can pose real threats to professional standing, erode public confidence, and diminish the common good.

Introduction to Stoic Ethics by Michael S. Russo Molloy College, Department of Philosophy Show me a man who though sick is happy, though in danger is happy, though dying is happy, though condemned to exile is happy, though in disrepute is happy. Show him! By the gods, I would fain see a Stoic. — Epictetus I. The Foundations of Stoic Ethics The origin of the Stoic discussion on the happy life is actually found in the Nicomachean Ethics 1095a 18, where Aristotle observes that happiness ( eudaimonia ) is the end of life for all human beings. The question of what constitutes happiness, however, is a matter of some contention between Aristotle and the Stoa. In Aristotle's opinion, happiness is "an activity of the soul in accordance with perfect virtue." Virtue here is defined as a proper disposition of the soul in pursuit of the good. Up until this point Aristotle and the Stoics are in complete agreement; it is when Aristotle describes the nature of the sumum bonum that conflict arises. In Chapter One of the

55. Woodhill Publishing: Purpose Of Life, A Book On Philosophy / Ethics / Evolution The Purpose of Life is summarised. This is a book on the philosophy of values and ethics from a viewpoint of evolution or sociobiology. http://www.woodhillpublishing.co.uk

Woodhill Publishing The Purpose of Life Summary of Main Argument Book Contents Page Contact Details Order Form ... Home The Purpose of Life by Donald Cameron Woodhill Publishing (2001) The Purpose of Life is an entirely non-mystical solution to the problem of moral philosophy derived with the aid of current ideas in biology and mathematical decision theory. Dr Cameron makes the ambitious claim to have solved the problem, for the first time providing objective answers to questions of values and ethics. Statements about value, purpose or morality are fundamentally different from statements about fact and scientific attempts to prove them from premises of fact must fail. The philosophers' principle that you cannot derive an "ought" from an "is" is valid. A value conclusion cannot be drawn from premises consisting only of facts. There must be at least one value premise. This result has been used by philosophers as a licence to pull complex value statements out of their culturally conditioned feelings before applying reasoning to them. The author uses a different approach. That is to seek the most basic, self-evident axioms of value. These are (a) to wish not to hold contradictory beliefs about values, (b) to reject nihilism (the idea that nothing matters at all) and (c) to wish one's values not to be a result of random accidental events, but to have a source of information. The only source of non-random information, which has created human values, including the human instinct to build an ethical culture, is the force of natural selection. The fact of evolution and, in particular, the modern analyses of the evolution of altruism and social behaviour are essential to understand any philosophy of values. It is astonishing that so many investigators of ethics have felt able to ignore them.

Same Day Delivery Available On All Papers! Only /page + FREE Bibliography!!! Ethics Papers Page 4 of 12 The Practical Application of the Theories of Kant and Mill send me this paper Immanuel Kant and John Stuart Mill are philosophers who addressed the issues of morality in terms of how moral traditions are formed. Kant's theory of categorical imperative states that humanity is of ultimate value and should be regarded as an end in itself. Mill's 'principle of utility' or 'the greatest happiness principle' sought for the systematic coherency of ethical philosophy through the consequences of actions as the consideration determining their morality, presupposed by the acquisition of happiness as opposed to the avoidance of pain. This 6 page paper examines the practical application of the two theories. Bibliography lists 2 sources. Filename: KTpramak.wps

More specifically, it is a belief in God that created the universe and set it in motion to run by natural processes (laws), and is based on the observation of orderly nature (universe) and human reason (speculation), rather than on holy books. Generally, it's a rational belief in God without accepting the creeds of any particular traditional religion. Deism is a philosophy that can be a thinking person's religion.
