KAHULUGAN NG BATAS
Sumasaklaw sa ating buhay na kung saan ipinatutupad ang mga batas na dapat nating gawin o sundin. Ang batas ang sya ding dumidisiplina sa ating mga kamalian na may pananagutan o kapalit na kaparusahan. Ang batas, sa politika at hurisprudensiya, ay ang mga kumpol ng alituntunin sa pag-aasal na naguutos o nagbabawal (o pareho) sa isang natukoy na pakikipagugnayan sa pagitan ng mga tao at kapisanan. Kasama din dito ang mga kaparusahan sa mga hindi sumusunod sa mga nakatatag na alituntunin sa pag-aasal.
THOMAS AQUINAS
Virtue denotes a certain perfection of a power. Now a thing's perfection is considered chiefly in regard to its end. But the end of power is act. Wherefore power is said to be perfect, according as it is determinate to its act. Thomas defined the four cardinal virtues as prudence, temperance, justice, and fortitude. The cardinal virtues are natural and revealed in nature, and they are binding on everyone. There are, however, three theological virtues: faith,hope, and charity. These are somewhat supernatural and are distinct from other virtues in their object, namely, God:Now the object of the theological virtues is God Himself, Who is the last end of all, as surpassing the knowledge of our reason. On the other hand, the object of the intellectual and moral virtues is something comprehensible to human reason. Wherefore the theological virtues are specifically distinct from the moral and intellectual virtues. Furthermore, Thomas distinguished four kinds of law: eternal, natural, human, and divine. Eternal law is the decree of God that governs all creation. Natural law is the human "participation" in the eternal law and is discovered by reason. Natural law, of course, is based on "first principles":this is the first precept of the law, that good is to be done and promoted, and evil is to be avoided. All other precepts

    Virtue is the good moral quality that a person possesses. “Virtue ethics is currently one of three major approaches in normative ethics. It may, initially, be identified as the one that accentuates the virtues, or moral character, in contrast to the approach which accentuates obligations or rules (deontology) or that which accentuates the consequences of actions (consequentialism).” [ CITATION Ros12 \l 1033 ].…

    Aristotle believed that virtue is a habitual way of acting -- not an emotion or a capacity, and believed that there are intellectual virtues, about thinking, and moral virtues about character. He states that a virtuous act requires that we do the right thing knowingly and willingly and that we do the act for its own sake, not from an ulterior motive or reward.…

    In “Nicomachean Ethics,” Aristotle defines moral virtue as a disposition to behave in the right manner and as a mean between extremes of deficiency and excess, which are vices. Moral virtue is learned through habit and practice rather than through reasoning and instruction. Virtue is defined as having the proper attitude toward pain and pleasure. Aristotle lists the principle virtues along with their corresponding vices and believes that a virtuous person exhibits all of the virtues, not as distinct qualities but as different aspects of a virtuous…

    Franklin´S Autobiography

    In the various enumerations of the moral virtues I had met with in my reading, I found the catalog more or less numerous, as different writers included more or fewer ideas under the same name. Temperance, for example, was by some confined to eating and drinking, while by others it was extended to mean the moderating every other pleasure, appetite, inclination, or passion, bodily or mental, even to our avarice and ambition. I proposed to myself, for the sake of clearness, to use rather more names, with fewer ideas annexed to each, than a few names with more ideas; and I included under thirteen names of virtues all that at that time occurred to me as necessary or desirable, and annexed to each a short precept, which fully expressed the extent I gave to its meaning.…

    Virtue is defined as "the quality of moral excellence, righteousness, and responsibility" (Pg.73) While studying what makes a virtuous person their character rather than actions are studied. Honesty, courage, moderation, compassion, wisdom and loyalty are a few examples of the characteristics of a virtuous person. (pg.82) Virtue is the moderate option. For example a person can be greedy or a person can give everything they have away, but the person who takes care of themselves and others in virtuous because they are being responsible for themselves and others.…

Saint Thomas thinks the existence of God can be proved.…

According to Thomas Aquinas the cardinal virtues direct our lives toward our natural ends, or goals; while the theological virtues guide us toward an ultimate end of a personal union with God. He was of the opinion we could not reach our natural ends without God’s…
