In this paper I will be contrasting the moral philosophies of David Hume and Immanuel Kant. Although I will be discussing several ideas from each philosopher the main theme of my paper will be dealing with the source of morality. It is my opinion that Hume’s sentiment based‚ empirical method is more practical than the reason based‚ a priori theory of Kant. According to Kant moral law must be known a priori‚ and must be able to be universally applied to all beings. Kant asserts that empirical explanations

Our bodies are made of over 75% water‚ so the logical choice would be to fill our bodies with water. It seems that in one sentence I should be able to convince you that water is definitely the right choice‚ just in case it does not‚ here is more reasoning. Water is the most abundant liquid in our bodies. In fact‚ it is the most abundant component of our bodies. So why would you want to fill you body with anything else other than water.

Socrates and the Sophists (Plato’s Dialogues) In chapter 4‚ The Sophist: Protagoras‚ Soccio does an excellent job discussing a group of teachers and thinkers known collectively as sophists‚ and the social environment in which they flourished for a time.

He says himself that humans are a combination of good and evil. Though at first‚ his reasoning for why our action that define us is flawed‚ he is still able to keep his belief in our action as a deciding factor. Dr. Jekyll would agree with the first sentence of the quote‚ “We’ve all got both light and dark inside us” as long as it applied

Atheism vs. Theism The most wanted thing in the world is happiness. We work so hard in order to create or maintain it‚ so much so that it’s counterproductive. Does practicing a religion create happiness? Why is lack of religion associated with condemnation while certain attitudes believe anyone not associated with them is inferior? Religion is ultimately blinding people to their own world. By saying one knows the “ultimate” truth stops the search in the first place. People become static‚ people

I’m not totally sure that you have to get rid of one or the other‚ but Nihilism theories seem to have a lot less explanatory power than do dualistic ones to me. In this paper I will argue that the clearest difference between Descartes and Nietzsche here is that whereas Descartes thought that ideas are passive‚ Nietzsche thought the opposite.
