Philosophy

Choose a contemporary moral issue in our society and apply the ethical principle of Utilitarianism to approve and be in favor of this moral

issue. You must pick a moral issue that you strongly agree with and apply the utilitarian claims to back up your arguments. In addition, you

must apply Bentham’s Felicific Calculus. The paper must be done in MLA format with a minimum of 500 words (quotes are not included in the word

count). You must read Chapter 2 and watch the Week 3 Lectures before you do this paper. You must use at least 3 sources from LIRN, in our

library. . Not applying Utilitarianism or the Felicific Calculus results in an automatic F. Utilitarianism is the ethical theory that the moral

worth of an action is only determined by its contribution to overall utility . It is thus a form of consequentialism , meaning that the moral

worth of an action is determined by its outcome-the ends justifies the means.
