Journal 3: Motivations behind Decisions. There is a maximum of 1500 characters.

1.      The act nonconsequentialist theory allows one greater freedom in making moral decisions than other theories because it leaves moral decisions completely up to each individual’s own feelings. How free do you think individuals should be in their moral decision-making? Do you think this theory appeals to you and to what extent?

2.      Analyze whether emotions or feelings play an important role in a moral system. How do they relate to morality?

3.      To what extend do you believe that Jews, Christians, and Muslims use the “Divine Command Theory” approach rather than egoism or act or rule utilitarianism as a basis for their ethical systems?

4.      How much importance do you think duty ought to have in relation to morality?

5.      Rule nonconsequentialist theories stress consistency in their moral systems and codes, whereas the act nonconsequentialist theory seems to imply variety and inconsistency. Is consistency in a moral system or code, or for a person important?

6.      The rule nonconsequentialist theories essentially state that there are certain moral absolutes that should never be violated (e.g., rules against killing, mutilating, stealing, and breaking promises). To what extent do you agree or disagree with this idea? Are there certain do’s and don’ts to which human beings should always adhere and what are they? Why should they adhere to these moral principles, and what are the reasons behind this view of yours?

7.      Do you think it is important to rank moral rules in order of importance (e.g., Ross’s Prima Facie Duties)? How will you rank your own ethical rules or those of any other system of which you are aware?

8.      Would you kill for the sake of duty?
