Does morality make sense?

When we think about ethics, we tend to think about what we should and should not do to be seen as good people. It is often the case that moral people often lie, stolen, steal, cheat, rape, torture, slander, neglect their duties and responsibilities, and so on. We accept that you did not do things like that. And also, we find that an ethical man does not stay away from this hatred, at the same time we find it worthy of praise; generous, polite, honest, respectful, loyal, courageous or automatic control.

In addition to these, we know that we have moral expectations from us when we appreciate moral people from the heart. Let's face it, sometimes moral life seems like a real burden. And justice is fairly easy when things go pretty well for us, but justice is much more difficult than justice while we wait for our career goals, balance in our family, our deepest passions, and perhaps even look at our lives. .

Moreover, even ordinary people who observe human relationships can detect that people who have achieved great success in life are not always, or even often, very moral. Victims or justice can begin to worry that people are looking around and inadequate in practical appraisal. In the end, practical wisdom lives well - and many seem to lack morality - perhaps not the best option to meet justice expectations.

It reveals a difficult philosophical question: to be ethical and just to be logical - is it wise in practice?

This question is addressed to the Socrates in Plato. In dialogue, those who speak with Socrates find it difficult to confront the evil truth: injustice seems to have a supremacy in life, because it frees you to live freely and freely - without money or captivity - to gain money and power to live freely.

However, Socrates is not affected by this opinion. Advocate that a "blessed blessed man" should love justice both his own and his good results. Although moral human justice is not just about these results, it has been determined that justice has a good outcome in itself - these "justice benefits".

This is a view that appeals to human nature. The idea is that; As political animals, we must be highly committed to each other, so that if we have the laws that govern and support strong social communication styles, we can live together and be happy. So the laws of the countries where citizens can develop and succeed can be fair. For this reason we can say that justice is necessary for us - that is, we should not observe justice. It is not a matter of personal choice that wants to live happily together, but our people as people. If we accept this aspect of human nature, if we think of our fairness - what kind of creatures we are, it is both usable and useful for us.
