The scenario
Some countries notably.Great Britain have initiated maintenance programs for drug addicts. Merely by signing up the drug addicted becomes entitled to free drugs in doses to stabilize and maintain habit. Such programs reduce drug related crimes and facilitate research into phenomenon of addictions.Some critics claim these programs a re immoral because thy approve and support physically and emotionally harmful behavior. Is this criticism ethically valuable.
Part II
In this week’s module we took a look at what is often called the ‘Euthyphro Dilemma’. Socrates is looking for that characteristic that makes all holy acts and only holy acts, holy. Acts we saw might have all sorts of characteristics. They might be done slowly, frequently, in the evenings, in the presence of many other people, few people, etc. Are any of these characteristics (being slow, frequent, occurring in the evenings, being done in the presence of many people, few people, etc.) absolutely required for an act to be holy, or are they just incidental? Think of an example of a holy action. What absolutely must be part of it; what can be omitted without loss?
