    The Principle of Essential Humanness and the Critical Ethical Eclecticism that I am using as a moral paradigm also have a proper focus on consequences. Even though motives are important‚ consequences are equally important. What happens is as important as why it happens. Humans act for reasons‚ actions have consequences that matter.
