Die drei Grundfragen der Ethik: "Wie soll ich handeln?", "Warum soll ich so handeln wie ich handeln soll?", "Was bedeuten die zentralen ethischen Grundbegriffe?" werden hier erläutert...

Exploring topics ranging from faith and the soul to society and morals, Refracted Reflections: Faith, Morals, and Society endeavors to highlight some of the steps toward gaining and achieving a perfected coordination and synchronization of the outward aspects of conduct and the inner aspects of thought within the self, whether related to understanding the intricacies and characteristics of the cosmos, or dealing with matters related to soul, birth, life, death, and beyond.

We all have strong emotions in response to moral matters. How can we be sure our responses are correct?

"Nicht die Dinge an sich beunruhigen den Menschen, sondern seine Sicht der Dinge!" Der Grieche Epiktet (ca. 50-130) lebte in Rom und war einer der bedeutendsten Vertreter der späten stoischen Philosophie. Das "Handbüchlein der Moral", auch "Encheiridion", war sein bekanntestes Werk und fand in der Spätantike als Trostbuch eine starke Verbreitung. Der Wille sei so zu gebrauchen, dass Harmonie mit dem Weltlauf erreicht wird.

In the wake of the Dobbs decision, America needs a calm rethinking of abortion. And as most of us intuitively sense, it's too complicated for one favored right to override all other concerns.

Most of us are wondering what the heck is going wrong with the world. We turn on our televisions to hear about rape, theft, murderous rampages, and more. People are going crazy and slapping their managers in the face with bacon at fast-food restaurants. Patrons are abandoning their cars in the drive thru to slip inside the back door and physically accost the food service employees. Pizza delivery drivers are being robbed, and food delivery drivers are carrying guns to defend themselves against hangry customers. Why are we losing our moral fiber?

El escepticismo es bien conocido en la filosofía occidental, la mentalidad de cuestionar las afirmaciones de conocimiento establecidas en varias áreas. Los escépticos han cuestionado la idoneidad o confiabilidad de estas afirmaciones preguntando en qué conceptos se basan o qué establecen realmente. Han dudado de si algunas de esas afirmaciones son verdaderas, tal como se declaran, o siempre verdaderas, y han cuestionado las supuestas premisas lógicas de las suposiciones aceptadas.
