A basis for discussing ethics with an intelligent layman.

[prof]

Hi, Necromancer

Thank you for reading up on Ethical Theory. Did you learn anything you didn't already know as to how to bring up and discuss with someone you encounter the topics of smooth human relations, the benefits of harmonious cooperation, the showing of consideration and deference to others, etc.? Can you now better demonstrate to them how it's of mutual benefit to pursue this goal, and thus to do so is in their real true self-interest.


One sure way to be happy, science has shown, is to make someone else happy.

See, for the evidence, the research at Case Western Reserve University - https://cse.google.com/cse?cx=013802920 ... 0happiness
Open the citations on pages 1 and 2.



Here are two quotes from Abraham Lincoln, (the founder of the Republican Party):

If anything is wrong, slavery is wrong!

We are as happy as we make up our minds to be happy.
