He had a Jewish education, resisted orthodoxy and was later excommunicated of heresy and changed his name to Benedictus de Spinoza in 1656 (commonly spelt 'Benedict'). The Christians didn't think much of Spinoza either (though his whole philosophy is based on God) and the orthodox accused him of atheism. Despite such ill treatment and unpopularity (his main philosophical work 'Ethics' was published posthumously) Spinoza lived a simple and noble life polishing lenses, displaying an indifference to money, fame and power.

66. Ethics [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] Introduction to ethics, with links to other articles at the IEP. http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/e/ethics.htm

Ethics The field of ethics, also called moral philosophy, involves systematizing, defending, and recommending concepts of right and wrong behavior. Philosophers today usually divide ethical theories into three general subject areas: metaethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics. Metaethics investigates where our ethical principles come from, and what they mean. Are they merely social inventions? Do they involve more than expressions of our individual emotions? Metaethical answers to these questions focus on the issues of universal truths, the will of God, the role of reason in ethical judgments, and the meaning of ethical terms themselves. Normative ethics takes on a more practical task, which is to arrive at moral standards that regulate right and wrong conduct. This may involve articulating the good habits that we should acquire, the duties that we should follow, or the consequences of our behavior on others. Finally, applied ethics involves examining specific controversial issues, such as abortion, infanticide, animal rights, environmental concerns, homosexuality, capital punishment, or nuclear war. By using the conceptual tools of metaethics and normative ethics, discussions in applied ethics try to resolve these controversial issues. The lines of distinction between metaethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics are often blurry. For example, the issue of abortion is an applied ethical topic since it involves a specific type of controversial behavior. But it also depends on more general normative principles, such as the right of self-rule and the right to life, which are litmus tests for determining the morality of that procedure. The issue also rests on metaethical issues such as, "where do rights come from?" and "what kind of beings have rights?"

Introduction to Stoic Ethics by Michael S. Russo Molloy College, Department of Philosophy Show me a man who though sick is happy, though in danger is happy, though dying is happy, though condemned to exile is happy, though in disrepute is happy. Show him! By the gods, I would fain see a Stoic. — Epictetus I. The Foundations of Stoic Ethics The origin of the Stoic discussion on the happy life is actually found in the Nicomachean Ethics 1095a 18, where Aristotle observes that happiness ( eudaimonia ) is the end of life for all human beings. The question of what constitutes happiness, however, is a matter of some contention between Aristotle and the Stoa. In Aristotle's opinion, happiness is "an activity of the soul in accordance with perfect virtue." Virtue here is defined as a proper disposition of the soul in pursuit of the good. Up until this point Aristotle and the Stoics are in complete agreement; it is when Aristotle describes the nature of the sumum bonum that conflict arises. In Chapter One of the

BECK index Hindu Philosophy Nyaya and Vaishesika Mimamsa ... Bhagavad-Gita This chapter has been published in the book For information on ordering click here. In India there are six orthodox schools of philosophy which recognize the authority of the Vedas as divine revelation, and they generally function as pairs - Nyaya and Vaishesika Mimamsa and Vedanta , and Samkhya and Yoga. Those who did not recognize this authority were the Jains, Buddhists, and materialists. Even in India, where spiritual ideas dominate the culture, there were some who were skeptical of those ideals and held to a materialist view of the world; they were called Carvaka , and their doctrine that this world is all that exists is called Lokayata The materialists did not believe in an afterlife and found sense perception to be the only source of knowledge, denying the validity of inference or general concepts. They focused on the senses and the four traditional elements of earth, water, fire, and air. Consciousness for the Carvaka is only a modification of these elements in the body. The soul is also identified with the body, and pleasure and pain are the central experiences of life, nature being indifferent to good and evil with virtue and vice being merely social conventions. This worldly philosophy naturally ignored the goal of liberation (moksha) or simply believed that death as the end of life and consciousness was a liberation. However, they also tended to neglect the value of virtue or justice

78. 20th WCP: Virtue Ethics (Not Too) Simplified Article by Philip Cafaro presented at the 20th World Congress of philosophy. http://www.bu.edu/wcp/Papers/TEth/TEthCafa.htm

Theoretical Ethics Virtue Ethics (Not Too) Simplified Philip Cafaro Southwest State University ABSTRACT: There are two basic types of ethical judgments: deontological judgements that focus on focus on duty and obligation and eudaimonist judgements that focus on human excellence and the nature of the good life. I contend that we must carefully distinguish these two types of judgement and not try to understand one as a special case of the other. Ethical theories may be usefully divided into two main kinds, deontological or eudaimonist, on the basis of whether they take one of the other of these types of judgement as primary. A second important contention, which this paper supports but does not attempt to justify fully, is that neither type of theory trumps the other, nor should we subsume them under some more encompassing ethical synthesis. Introduction: Virtue Ethics Ethical theories may be usefully divided into two main types, deontological or eudaimonist, on the basis of whether they take one or the other of these kinds of judgments as primary. In the main, ancient ethical theories were eudaimonist in both form and content (in the kinds of judgments and terms they took as primary, and in the questions they spent the most time investigating). Most modern ethical theories have been deontological, again in both form and content.

By then, important social and ethical consequences of computer technology had already become manifest, and interest in computer-related ethical issues began to grow. Computer-aided bank robberies and other crimes attracted the attention of Donn Parker, who wrote books and articles on computer crime and proposed to the Association for Computing Machinery that they adopt a code of ethics for their members. The ACM appointed Parker to head a committee to create such a code, which was adopted by that professional organization in 1973.

80. Ethics & Politics ethics, philosophy, Politics. I think it is important for us to consider what we believe, why we believe it, the implications and possible contradictions http://www.solitary-pagan.net/Ethics, Philosophy, & Politics.htm

Scholarship I think it is important for us to consider what we believe, why we believe it, the implications and possible contradictions in what we believe, and to remain open to growth and development. In my view this is one of the most important areas of this curriculum. A charge often brought against Pagans is that we have no ethical or moral boundaries. Pagans are often viewed a hedonists who are out only for their on pleasure and their own gain. Even some of my atheist friend who realize that I'm not involved with any 'devil' have asserted that goal of magic is only to try to gain selfish control over a situation. It is because of these stereotypes that it is most important that Pagans become familiar with our ethical principles, and to act accordingly. Anyone who is suspicious of your Pagan religion will be watching you closely and your behavior may be influential in either confirming their stereotyped attitude or in changing it. Ethical Meta-Rules A "meta-rule" is a broad, all-encompassing rule, like the Golden Rule (Treat others as you want to be treated). The primary meta-rules found in Pagan writings are summarized in the piece below. This and similar pieces of poetry are often associated with Gardnerian Witchcraft, and more specifically with Doreen Valienti. Bide the Wiccan Law ye must
