Moral philosophy

In the film entitled liar Liar scripted by Paul Guay and Stephen Mazur, in that location several charaters who feature. These include such(prenominal) people as Fletcher Reedes acting as Jimmy C arey, Justin cooper acting as Max, Maura Tierney as Reeds move out wife, and Jenniffer Tilly among others (www.totalfilm.com ).The movie is round smooth-talking attorney and habitual liar, manipulating his way to the helm of his job a local police force company through winning great challenging cases. In the course of the film we find his word of honor celebrating his fifth birthday. The son is seen at one time trying to encourage his father to lies. This is because it is portrayed that this briny character has lived and earned his career through lies.It is not clear whether that he get out be capable to win a case involving a character by the name Samantha Cole whose cases is on infidelity. The main character is also faced with the challenge of stopping his ex-wife taking his son to l ive with her in Boston. by dint of the application of lies Carrey survives in his career without the web of lies on which his career depends.In the movie Liar Liar, though clouded in comic laughter, there are several incidences whereby some acts are portrayed as immoral. The main character in this film in his endeavors to push his career up, he did some things which turn out to be immoral. He pursued his cases based on a web of lies which worked wonders for. Though to him this was a conquest the acts were in themselves immoral.Based on Kants moral doctrine which states that an action is immoral not by virtue of its consequences but by the actual intentions of the actions. Kant further argued that moral requirements are based on a standard of sageity which he describes as Categorical Imperative (CI). In this case immorality will entail a violation of the categorical imperative and is therefore not demythologised (http//www.uchile.cl/bioetica/doc/honesty.htm).To be straight to t he point, it is clear that we are commanded to exercise our wills in a particular manner and not to do some actions or others. It is therefore categorical in the course of applying to us unreservedly, or merely because we possesses rational wills. This is genuine because without indication to any ends that we might or might not have (http//www.uchile.cl/bioetica/doc/honesty.htm). manage his predecessors, Kant argues that moral requirements are based on standards of rationality which are either desire-based instrumental principles of rationality or based on pother rational intuitions.According to the film the main character acts against his duty of universe honest to his clients and the public. This is against his duty to which he is called to. According to Kant, this is the only moral motive. In order to act virtuously people should to what is right guided by a sense of duty (www.answerbag.co.uk/q_view/398707).To conclude the movie gives us a picture of how people behave during th eir day to day life. During such times they go about doing things which to them are perceived as moral yet in actual sense do not constitute morality. The philosopher in this case i.e. Kant gives the true picture of what is moral and not moral.Works citedTruth and true professional, available athttp//www.uchile.cl/bioetica/doc/honesty.htm, assessed on April 6, 2008Kant the moral order, available athttp//www.uchile.cl/bioetica/doc/honesty.htm, assessed on April 6, 2008What is the hind end of your moral philosophy?, available atwww.answerbag.co.uk/q_view/398707 65k assessed on April 6, 2008Liar Liar film review, available atwww.totalfilm.com, assessed on April 6, 2008 clean PhilosophyI moot that moral philosophy of Jeremy Bentham is the best suited for care and decision-making. Benthams philosophy is based on three principles of the greatest happiness, universal egoism and kitschy realisation of ones interests. His philosophy is also referred to as utilitarianism. For example, Bentham argues By the principle of utility is meant that principle which approves or disapproves of every action whatsoever, according to the tendency which it appears to have to augment or diminish the happiness of the party whose interest is in question or, what is the same thing in other words, to promote or to equate that happiness.I think that in our tough and often hostile business environment it is soften to be universal egoism because in such a way you remain strong and truehearted defending your positions at the market place. The principle of greatest happiness can be interpreted in the way that companys success makes leadership happy. Actually, Bentham philosophy is rational and logical, therefore, it is the best suited for our rational world. Bentham emphasizes the usefulness of things and actions meaning that everything should have its own place and purpose because it will lead to general happiness.Bentham surface is naturalistic as he promotes universal hedonism. He assumes that the primary motivators are pleasure and pain. The same is in business when pain is felt, leadership and team do their best to cure the pain. Bentham also argues that humans are always seeking for the greatest happiness because their interests are interrelated with interests of other humans. Benthams moral philosophy held the advantage as the principle of utility is very popular. Compared to other principles, the principle of utility is very velar and enables decisions to be made where there is a need to solve the conflict of legitimate interests. Benthams philosophy is a fundamental commitment to human equality. Benthams principle of utility suggests that one man is price just the same as another man.ReferencesJeremy Bentham.

Moreover, Hume argues that morals should play important role in decision-making process as it gives thinkers an opportunity to make such a decision wont oppose anybodys suggestions or preferences.He says that moral agent is make by character traits which nature is either virtuous or vicious. If a person is willing to gift money or things for charity, his actions are motivated by virtuous traits. In business decision-making, he notes, such traits should be natural and instinctive, and only in such person will make really honest decisions. Humes moral philosophy is distinct and exact. (Fieser 2006)For example, Hume clearly divides qualities into virtuous and vice. The natural virtues are meekness, generosity, charity and benevolence, whereas artificial or vice virtues are chastity, greediness, dishonesty, and keeping promises. It seems that Hume places qualities needed for a well-ordered states as a rtificial. I think that in such a way he wants to show that business and decision-making should natural and instinctive.Agents are provided with mental roles, though in certain situation a person may refer to more than entrusted role. (Fieser 2006) David Hume concludes that there are four categories of qualities necessary for moral business running and decision-making1. Qualities useful for others charity, fidelity, meekness, and benevolence2. Qualities useful for oneself patience and perseverance3. Qualities agreeable to others cleanliness, eloquence, and wit4. Qualities agreeable to oneself pride, humor, and self-esteem.Actually, David Hume discusses all the qualities which are considered the core of adequate business running. It is necessary to mention that to make really estimable decision means to use trained sensitivity to ethical issues. (Fieser 2006)ReferencesFieser, Jame. (2006). Humes Moral Theory.
