Corey's Essays on Ethics

These are some essays I wrote in a college ethics course. They're on stuff like right and wrong, nature of God, that sort of intelectual stuff. If something doesn't make sense, that's probably because they make reference to something the professor knew about (such as a text book reference) that you don't, so please be forgiving.

Egoism

This is an essay I wrote about selfishness and it's vital role in everyday life. Interesting how the conotation of the word selfishness casts it as a bad thing, and something that we don't want to have anything to do with. Anyway, take a look here...

What is "Good"?

Plato's question was "Do the Gods love piety because it is pious, or is it pious because the Gods love it?" What do you think?

Utilitarian Theory

Something on Utilitarian Theory that I wrote as a final exam. Brainier stuff.

Kant's Categorial Imperative

Something About Kant's Categorical Imperative, about moral rules and values. Also a final exam essay.
