Good morning everyone,
I hope you’re all having a cracking start to the weekend 🙂
How do you define what makes somebody a good person? Would you classify yourself to be a morally good person? In today’s blog, we are going to be exploring the philosophical theory of Virtue Ethics, a personal favourite of mine, which delves into the answer to both of the above questions and so much more – let’s get into it.
Hello and Welcome to Sweeney’s Blogs!
Do you know the famous René Descartes saying “I think therefore I am”, have you ever thought about how you can implement that into your life? If, let’s say you believe yourself to be a kind person, then surely the actions that you choose to partake in your life will be rooted in kindness, wouldn’t you agree?
Let’s take this thought experiment and apply it to the world of ethics and moral philosophy. Virtue Ethics focuses on the notion that ‘virtuous people’ will undertake morally correct actions. What does that mean exactly, well, be sure to check out the blog below for more:
