    Moral Relativism Essay

    • 3 Pages

    Ethics is a moral standard that is set by society. However‚ these standards change as the way of life and cultural customs are different all over the world.

These changes in the ethical standards also change the moral relativism of a situation. Moral relativism is a theory where one is judged by the totality of a situation rather than the end result. Today

    According to Kant‚ the reasons behind an action is what gives moral worth to actions. This is also referred to as a maxim (Shafer-Landau‚ 2010‚ p. 147). As opposed to the utilitarian’s view‚ the morality of the action is not relevant if there is a good outcome‚ meaning what gives moral worth to an action are the consequences. There are some disadvantages and advantages to both Kant’s view and utilitarians’ views. Nonetheless‚ I think Kant’s views are preferable and more reasonable. One of the reasons

    The Middle Path vs. Extreme Ends After his enlightenment when he was 35 years old‚ the Buddha had traveled to teach people his ideas of being liberated from suffering. He says that when there is life‚ there will always be suffering. The fact of suffering is explained by the Four Noble Truths.

    I personally believe the Kant is wrong when he says the we are advancing towards a universal morality. I believe the “morality” is something that changes over time‚ and something that we as a species make up. Throughout history there have been many definitions of whet is constituted as moral and what’s not. Homosexuality is an easy one to write about in this regard. For example‚ in the ancient Roman times it was completely acceptable to have a same-sex relationship‚ and nobody would get judged for
