Current moral and social issues

Learning Goal: I’m working on a writing multi-part question and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.

Part 1

(1) What is the basic moral principle behind Divine Command Theory?

(2) What is the free will objection to Divine Command Theory? Does it apply to other ethical theories? Explain

(3) U5, in the notes on Utilitarianism, is the basic moral principle of Utilitarianism. Why would Utilitarians deny U3 and U4 as their basic moral principle? Explain why they would reject both.

(4) In the lecture on Utilitarianism the objection from justice is explained. What is the objection (in your own words)? Do you find it to be a good objection to the theory? Explain

(5) What is the basic moral principle behind Kantian Ethics? What is the difference between CI and CI*? Why is this difference utterly important for the theory?

(6) What is the utilitarian objection to Deontology as explained in the lecture on Kant’s Ethics?

Part 2

(1) – Please give an example of the Ad Hominem Tu Quoque and explain how it is an example of the fallacy and why the fallacy is an example of bad reasoning.

(2) What is the Straw-man fallacy? Please give an example of it and explain in detail why such a fallacy is an example of bad reasoning.

(3) What is the Post Hoc Ergo Proctor Hoc fallacy? How does it work? Please give an example of the fallacy and explain why the fallacy is an exmaple of bad reasoning.

SECTION 2: please answer both questions in *no more* than 350 words each.

(1) What is the basic moral principle underlying Divine Command Theory? Explain it and explain Socratic objection to it IN YOUR OWN WORDS. DO you find this objection convincing?

(2) What is the free will objection to divine command theory as described in the lecture? Does it apply to any other ethical theories? Explain your answer in as much detail as possible.

Please do not overlap answers between part 1 and part 2

Use “divine command theory� to answer part 1 and use “ fallacies� to answer part 2
