What is ethics?

This is what Rick Creighton thinks:

“Being what we were created to be” is a pretty good summary of what ethics should be all about.


And here's where he says it.

Being and doing?

Bonjour Gordon,

Honestly, I don't understand that sentence. There is no way to define for everybody on this earth why or for what reason you and me are here.

What do you think about Emmanuel Kant's definition for a basis of moral requirements:

Act in such a way that your doing could become a universal law (my translation, could be better, I know).

Cheers, Gordon
Georg
