ACTIVITY 9 OLVAL02

1. What is “good” and “bad” for you? Cite an example and explain. For me the good is an example of obedience to parents because they are my strength and they gave me life. simple obedience to parents is an honor to them because they are important to us and we always need them every day we wake up. The bad thing for me is not respecting someone because my father taught me that anyone else, whether an addict or a garbage man, still needs to be respected because they are human beings like us. in today's time for me it's bad is the disrespect for each other and the others are the ease of judging a person because of its appearance we don't know maybe it needs help. 2. Explain in your own opinion about the moral maturity. Moral maturity is a requirement in the person who is to apply a body of knowledge or a skill to the solution of a problem, or to the understanding of a situation, if the knowledge is not to remain abstract and the skill potential unrealized. Morally mature people have the skills to participate in the social world. They can understand others, make themselves understood, and sometimes persuade others to adopt their own point of view. Most moral maturity comes with maturity. But maturity covers so many fronts that a mature person could have times of immoral behavior. It is not moral to be judgemental but a mature person could at times, be judgemental. A married person could be mature and moral most of the time but then have an immoral (and likewise immature) extramarital affair. Human behavior is not ever perfect. Some people perfect it better than others. To choose moral behavior over the alternative shows maturity Although moral maturity usually comes with being mature, it does not necessarily have to do with age. There are many young people out there with maturity and moral maturity, who know how to treat everyone with dignity and respect. 3. What are your institusions laws and religions, culture that you obeyed and disobeyed? Please elaborate your answer. One can decide to not obey, but that means that one has increased his or her chances to fail in life, and then complain that the life is not fair. Plus probably no preparation for the life after death. There are many people who do not obey God consciously but otherwise obey what God has ordered anyways. For example to be nice to others, don't steal, don't lie, don't cheat, be honest, work to earn bread, be nice with your spouses and family and relatives, give charity, feed the hungry and poor, and so on. As a result their lives seem to be fine and many of the same people say that why we need to obey God when we are fine without obeying Him. Fact of the matter is that they are in fact obeying the God by following the guidelines which God has provided anyways, and are fine to the extent they are obeying them. But to go to the next levels, one needs to become more and more obedient. And then their is the spiritual aspect and worry about the afterlife. That requires prayers and improving moral qualities and making a closer relationship with God.

4. Is being rational is a sign of being mature? The idea of this so called rational behaviour is in fact rooted in so many different areas of studies including the subjects like economics, sociology and even psychology. The economic theories typically assume that we are all rational human beings working to obtain whatever is the most beneficial to them. Rational behaviour is being defined as the key assumption used to elucidate the choices that human beings make with regards to achieving their own satisfaction. However, the rational choice theory is the view that people perform and behave as they do for the reason that they just believe that performing their chosen deeds has more benefits than actual costs. People make rational choices based on their aims, purposes, and ambitions as well as those choices typically govern their views and behaviours. 5. What do you feel about morality? Is it bad or good? For me is good because Good moral character is an ideal state of a person's beliefs and values that is considered most beneficial to society. In United States law, good moral character can be assessed through the requirement of virtuous acts or by principally evaluating negative conduct. 6. Can you explain the rational attitude? A rational person is someone who is sensible and is able to make decisions based on intelligent thinking rather than on emotion.

7. Are you responsible for having morality problems? Since human actions, at an appropriate level of description, are part of the universe, it follows that humans cannot act otherwise than they do; free will is impossible. Since moral responsibility seems to require free will, hard determinism implies that no one is morally responsible for his actions. Folk Judgements About Deliberate Actions. A long-standing position in philosophy, law, and theology is that a person can be held morally responsible for an action only if they had the freedom to choose and to act otherwise. Thus, many philosophers consider freedom to be a necessary condition for moral responsibility. 8. Choose from this. Needs and wants. Which do you prefer to have? I choose what I need than what I want because this is what I need for example I want a dress but I need a laptop more I will choose the laptop because I have a lot of clothes and the laptop I can use to study at the moment. I already have a lot of clothes and I can repeat that but I need the laptop more because I'm in college and it's important for a student to do what the teacher asks. for me what I want is something you just saw but you don't need it we all need more priority than we want like there are families who instead of good shoes you just buy food to satisfy your family because this is what you need you every day. the shoes are only needed once when the food is just leaving, they are needed every day because you are raising your family. we learn to give up sometimes for our needs and what we have we use first.

9. Do you really need peace and security? Why? Or why not? Peaceful societies are inclusive and secure, respect human rights, and manage conflict and crisis constructively and peacefully. Canada's objective in this path is to respond to violent conflict, to prevent violence, and to promote sustainable peace in fragile and conflict-affected states. Where war destroys and tears apart, peace builds, strengthens and restores. At the same time peace is personal, for each of us longs for security and tranquility in the face of the troubles, anxiety and chaos that often touch our lives. 10. How do you face your morality problems? As a mature individual? Please explain. Whether you are confronting the end of your own life or the loss of a loved one, death is a certainty of life that everyone will face. Even so, knowing that it's inevitable doesn't mean you'll feel prepared for dealing with death and the grief that follows. Acceptance of a loved one's death is possible, however it will also forever change you as a person. Your ability to process the death and the subsequent stages of grief will get you to acceptance. ... To do so would inadvertently mean that the person wasn't that meaningful or that they aren't worth the pain and sorrow.
