PHI 208 Week 1 Discussion (ring of Gyges) FOR
MORE CLASSES VISIT www.phi208rank.com   In the
excerpt from the Republic the example of the ring
of Gyges is used to claim that humans only act
morally because of fear that they will be caught.
Present an example of someone being morally good
out of fear and then present an example of
someone being morally good out of an inherent
desire to act in a specific way. Discuss with
others the idea that morality is inherent and
based on universal principles or virtues versus
the idea that ethics is socially created and
varies based on human social and political
context. Which do you find to be more
convincing?

PHI 208 Week 1 Discussion (Slavery) FOR MORE
CLASSES VISIT www.phi208rank.com   Slavery has
been practiced world-wide since the earliest days
of humanity and is still practiced in parts of
the world even today. Even the Bible condones
slavery. Yet today in America most people think
that slavery is absolutely morally wrong.
Polygamy has been practiced world-wide since the
earliest days and is still practiced in parts of
the world even today. Some major religions
require polygamy. There are many holy men in the
Bible who had multiple wives and concubines. Yet
today in America most people think that polygamy
is absolutely morally wrong. We even have laws
against polygamy. Since the rest of time and the
world says we are wrong, and we say that the rest
of time and the world is wrong, then how can we
decide what is

equality) FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT

calls the basic principle of equality. What is
this principle and how is it supposed to be
applied? What reasoning does he give that this
principle should be applied to non-human animals?
Do you agree? On what basis do you think we

PHI 208 Week 2 Discussion 1 Peter Singer and
Animal Rights FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT

Why or why not?

MORE CLASSES VISIT www.phi208rank.com   If the
primary goal of utilitarianism is to generate the
greatest good for the greatest number, a

PHI 208 Week 2 Discussion 2 (Singer and Moral
Justification) FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT
www.phi208rank.com   Singer argues that there is
no moral justification for denying moral
consideration to animals. Can you think of a good
moral reason why our moral consideration should
include all humans, even those without the
ability to reason, yet be denied to all non-human
animals (some of whom have that ability)? What
response might he have to your way of drawing the
line between the types of beings that should get
moral consideration and those that should not?

says that we all have equal inherent value by
virtue of being experiencing subjects of a
life. What does it mean to be an experiencing
subject of a life? Do you think that being the
subject of a life means that one has equal
inherent value? Does it follow from that view
that animals should be given rights to life and
freedom?
