Atheists typically propose a few possibilities: evolution, reason, conscience, and human nature. None of these can be the ultimate source of morality. Letâs start with evolution. It cannot be evolution because any supposed morality that is evolving can change. If it can change for the good or bad, there must be a standard above these changes to judge them as good or bad. For most of human history, powerful societies enslaved weaker societies and prospered. Thatâs just the way it...

Platoâs famous question concerning the nature of goodness asks whether a thing is good because God says it is good, or does God say itâs good because it is good. This is known as Euthyphroâs Dilemma (named after the character Euthyphro in Platoâs âsocratic dialogue' on the subject of goodness). The problem this question raises for the Christian is two-fold. First, if a thing is good simply because God says it is, then it seems that God could say anything...

The Euthyphro is a paradigmatic early dialogue of Plato's: it is brief, deals with a question in ethics, consists of a conversation between Socrates and one other person who claims to be an expert in a certain field of ethics, and ends inconclusively. It is also riddled with Socratic irony: Socrates poses as the ignorant student hoping to learn from a supposed expert, when in fact he shows Euthyphro to be the ignorant one who knows nothing about the subject...

Specific qualities and distinctions come about in their famous works on what it exactly means to say a human being is truly great. A fair amount of questioning...

This influence leads to near-blind control over selfacknowledgement of our own humane rights. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. not only asserted but showed that each of our own individual consciences should have the right to challenge the government. This would allow society to not be run from the...

There is a fine line between illusion and ideals and reality and truth. This line is easily manipulated. Ideals give the individuals drive and allow them to set goals for themselves. These goals provide purpose to each individual and, consequently, allow each individual to achieve their own sense of personal happiness. Being pragmatic, on the other hand, gives individuals a chance to look at the task from all sides and allows them to identify what is achievable, it grounds their...

Mankindâs superfluous yet multifarious hounding for felicity has been a constant throughout history. Singaporeâs stressful lifestyle and long working hours often leave one little time to indulge. Yet, contrary to Aristotleâs Nicomachean ethics, I believe happiness is achievable by all without the dedication of oneâs entire life. Happiness is intrinsically important for me as a source of motivation, productivity or coping mechanism in times of need. My pursuit of happiness aligns with Stoicism, where we rationalize away ineffaceably disturbing issues...

Tolstoy is not fully associated with existentialism, although in his work many existential themes are expressed. Tolstoyâs (1993) âHow much land does a man need?â looks into the existential idea of authenticity in relation to land ownership. Sartre is a major part of the existential discipline, with two important works which are âExistentialism and Humanismâ (2007) and âBeing and Nothingnessâ (1969). Sartre (1969) suggests the idea of bad faith, which is where an individual denies their freedom and acts in...

My philosophy on education was formed quite early as a result of my day to day learning in public school, and consequently, it has been undeniably inaccurate. I was a hard-working, driven student, with little inclination to question the nature of my education. I simply came to school, soaked in the instruction of the day, and committed myself to perform well - whether that was in adding and subtracting fractions or finding the theme throughout the latest fictional novel.

After years of elongated education to please society, McCandless felt as if his true path to success was exploring the great outdoors, rather than acquiring a surplus of capital and acceptance from others. McCandlessâ freedom and contentedness as described in the...
