1. What is the value of life?

It’s really hard to state what is the value of life when you are still a young adult who doesn’t
have a lot of experience on the real world, and just reading articles, news and watching
documentaries just to be aware and have a basis for your own sake. As a 20 years old girl, for
me the value of life is accepting that you are living. Day by day it seems like a copy paste of
yesterday, but still, we look forward because we are aiming for clearer and meaningful
existence. I know that we are all not in the same boat, most of us don’t have the privilege to be
relax and chill and just wondering and planning for the things that is impractical. A lot of us is
having a real hard time just to have a food to eat. That’s why even though I think of myself as a
plain living creature in this world, I’m still thankful that I’m breathing and sane.

2. If you are a member of this fraternity, what will you do?

Being a member of a fraternity has a big obligation not just for yourself but also for the people
on that organization. If I’m a member of that particular fraternity I’ll be stuck with just sticking
on our sworn or be responsible for the death of our co-member, for the reason that it’s really
hard to backlash when you promise to protect and respect the group, but it’s also hard to just
keep silent when you know there is a victim because your conscience will definitely burst.

3. Based from the given story, what is the concept of morality that this fraternity advocates?

Initiation is part of the process for you to be in the fraternity. If someone dies because of it, they
need to be kept their mouth no matter what happen. It’s their belief and that is what they
practice. The things that they do is for their union to be intact and strong. Based on what I have
read, they just let it on the time. They follow the flow and let people forget about it.

The Latin word mos or moris (and its plural mores) from which the adjective moral is derived is
equivalent to ethos.
Etymologically, ethics is but a survey of patterns of behavior that is done by the human being in
general or a society in particular.
Ethics, generally speaking is about matters such as the good thing that we should pursue and the
bad thing that we should avoid; the right ways in w/c we could or should act and the wrong
ways of acting. It is about what is acceptable and unacceptable in human behavior. It may
involve obligations that we are. Ethics as a subject for us to study is about determining the
grounds for the values w/ particular and special significance to human life.

Normative Ethics - The largest branch, it deals with how individuals can figure out the correct
moral action that they should take. Philosophers such as Socrates and John Stuart Mill are
included in this branch of ethics.

Meta-Ethics - This branch seeks to understand the nature of ethical properties and judgments
such as if truth values can be found and the theory behind moral principles.
Applied Ethics - This is the study of applying theories from philosophers regarding ethics in
everyday life. For example, this area of ethics asks questions such as "Is it right to have an
abortion?" and "Should you turn in your friend at your workplace for taking home office
supplies?"

Moral Ethics - This branch questions how individuals develop their morality, why certain aspects
of morality differ between cultures and why certain aspects of morality are generally universal.

Descriptive Ethics - This branch is more scientific in its approach and focuses on how juman
beings actually operate in the real world, rather than attempt to theorize about how they should
operate.

Knowing how to best resolve difficult moral and ethical dilemmas is never easy especially when
any choice violates the societal and ethical standards by which we have been taught to govern
our lives.

1. What is Moral Ethics?


This branch questions how individuals develop their morality, why certain aspects of
morality differ between cultures and why certain aspects of morality are generally universal.

Its is the type where you desire to be good yet appropriately observes some specific action
or behavior. You are wondering and observing the differences of morality of individuals and
the trying to figure out how it comes.

2. What is Descriptive Ethics?


This branch is more scientific in its approach and focuses on how human beings actually
operate in the real world, rather than attempt to theorize about how they should operate.

It is a type of observational investigation into the mentalities of people or gatherings of


individuals. This is the division of philosophical or general morals that includes the
perception of the ethical dynamic cycle with the objective of depicting the marvel. Those
taking a shot at illustrative morals intend to reveal individuals' convictions about such things
as qualities, which activities are good and bad, and which attributes of good specialists are
ethical.
3. Distinctions between Moral Ethics and Descriptive Ethics? (Give 10)

Moral Ethics

1. System of principles
2. Guide us along a pathway to deal more effectively with ethical dilemmas
3. Questioning how the morality of individuals develop
4. Desire to be good yet appropriately observes some specific action or behavior.
5. Rational interests

Descriptive Ethics

1. Best studied as psychology, sociology, or anthropology. Different societies have different


moral codes.
2. It seeks to establish "what is true" in a society or group.
3. Considered to be the shared ideals of a group, irrespective of whether they are practiced.
4. Does not connote objective claims of right or wrong, but only refers to that which is
considered right or wrong.
5. Intend to reveal individuals' convictions

4. How can we apply Ethics in our life?

Ethics is an arrangement of rules that encourages us tell directly from off-base, great from
awful. Morals can give genuine and useful direction to our lives. Moral qualities (for example
genuineness, reliability, obligation) help control us along a pathway to bargain all the more
adequately with moral situations by disposing of those practices that don't adjust to our
feeling of good and bad – our best reasonable interests – without relinquishing others.

Ethics is about the decisions we make. We continually face decisions that influence the
nature of our lives. We know that the decisions that we make have results, both for
ourselves as well as other people. We know about the duty we have for our activities.
