The fоllоwing is, in essence, аn аrgument we cоvered in this unit:You ought to perform your (morаl) duty because it's your duty, since 1) that is how you acquire a good will and 2) the good will is what has absolute value. Duties, however, are actions that must be performed and, therefore, duties must hold universally. From this, we can tell whether an action violates our duties, namely if that action cannot achieve its end/goal when universalized (i.e. made into a universal law that all rational agents must act accordingly with). Of course, if an action violates our duties, then we have a duty to refrain from that action.What moral principle is this an argument for?
Assume the fоllоwing three things. One, Gоd hаs commаnded us to not lie. Second, the purpose (i.e. the telos) God hаs assigned to human language is to communicate the truth. Third, the moral rule, you ought not to lie, is a morally justified rule - that is, following that rule tends to maximize pleasure and minimize pain.Consider the following situation:A major natural disaster has hit an ally of the U.S., putting several hundreds of thousands of people in peril. The president of the U.S. is considering sending troops to aid our ally logistically, contributing to the relief effort in order to save lives. Of course, he has to weigh the interests of the U.S. populace too; thus, he wants to keep the cost of the logistical aid at $10 billion or under. As a result, he consults a military strategist with an economics background to determine how many troops to send to keep the cost at or under $10 billion; the president will rely on what the strategist says.In examining the situation, the strategist sees two options he can tell the president. Option 1: send 1000 troops, which will save 35,000 people, and cost $10 billion to do. Option 2: send 1100 troops, which will save 350,000 people, and cost $11 billion to do. That extra 100 troops makes a big difference in terms of the relief effort's effectiveness! The strategist knows that if he tells the president both options, the president will choose option 1. However, if he says that sending 1100 troops will only cost $10 billion dollars - that is, if he lies to the president - then the president will send 1100 troops, thereby saving 315,000 more lives than if he tells the president the truth.One of the moral theories we covered in this unit is committed to the following: 1) you ought to do good and avoid evil, 2) it is good to perform a thing's purpose and evil to subvert it, and 3) God is who assigns things their purposes.Which of the following is entailed by that moral theory? Pick the best answer.
