ethics [Theme] Page 1



Truth and recognition.
When a person tries to convince others of his truth, that is, to make what has been revealed to him binding on everyone, he usually thinks that he is guided by high motives: love for others, the desire to enlighten the dark and lost, etc. And the theory of knowledge and ethics support him in this: they establish that truth is one and truth is truth for all. But the theory of knowledge with ethics and the humane sages equally poorly distinguish where the need to bring everyone to a single truth comes from. It is not the neighbors who want to benefit the one who bothers to bring all to the same truth. He cares little about his neighbors. But he himself does not dare and cannot accept his truth until he achieves real or imagined recognition of "all." For it is important for him not so much to have the truth as to receive general recognition. That is why ethics and the theory of knowledge are so concerned with restricting the rights of questioners as much as possible. Even Aristotle called any "exaggerated" inquisitiveness ill-manneredness. Such a consideration, or rather, such a recusal, would not seem convincing to anyone if for people the recognition of their truth would not be more important than the truth itself.

Writing like Pushkin: tragic and optimistic. To debunk the mob and love people. To hate the masses and see in it a brotherhood of the suffering, to recognize oneself as only one of them. Not the ethics of heroism - the ethics of compassion for all living.

Evolutionary ethics explains, but does not justify, our innate tendencies. Fortunately, evolution has also given man a mind, and therefore we can and must rise above our biological roots and revise the outdated ethical framework that evolution imposed on our ancestors. What is appropriate for the propagation of genes in Stone Age hunters is not suitable for a thinking civilized being. Evolutionary ethics warns us that we have an innate tendency to divide people into ours and strangers, and to feel disgust and dislike for strangers. We, as intelligent beings, must understand and overcome this.

Is Artificial Intelligence a Potential Threat? Undoubtedly. But from a moral point of view, we throw stones in a glass house. What do we know about ethics, humane treatment of animals, the environment or each other? That's right, almost nothing. In matters of morality, mankind has done nothing but disgrace throughout history. Superintelligent machines are likely to be able to comprehend life and death, creation and destruction at a much higher level than we have ever been able to.

Humanism is a secular, worldly, general civil worldview developed by man and going from person to person, expressing the idea of the absolute dignity of the individual, its outwardly relative, but steadily progressing towards absolute independence, self-sufficiency and equality in the face of society and the world known and unknown in it. Humanism is a modern form of realistic psychology and human life orientation, which includes rationality, criticality, skepticism, empathy, stoicism, tolerance, restraint, discretion, optimism, love of life, freedom, courage, hope, fantasy, and productive imagination. The humanistic worldview includes the requirement to recognize the presence or possibility of the inhuman in a person, not to ignore, but to strive to limit the power and sphere of influence of the dark side of human nature as much as possible. Moreover, humanism is full of conviction in the ability of people to more and more successfully and reliably curb their negative qualities in the course of human self-improvement and the progressive development of world civilization.

Any science, philosophy, religion, ethics, and ideologies can live together in this world, because they do not have epistemological contradictions by virtue of his original subjectivity of knowledge that they themselves generate. Thus a perfect knowledge excludes itself by definition.

In a world where education is predominantly verbal, highly educated people is almost impossible to pay attention to anything but words and notions. Always have money on his doctoral thesis for obtaining a scientific hoax studies that for scientists is incredibly important problem: who influenced whom to cast what and when? Even in our age of technology the verbal Humanities are held in high esteem. Non-verbal Humanities, the arts direct awareness of these facts of our experience are almost completely ignored. Catalog, bibliography, a definitive edition of the ipsissima verba of third-rhymer, a huge pointer to eliminate all pointers - any genuinely Alexandrian project is sure to get the approval and financial support. But when it comes to the question, as you and I, our children and grandchildren become more receptive to learn more intensely aware of internal and external reality, to be more open towards the spirit is less prone to physical illness due to psychological abuse, more able to control their own autonomic nervous system - when it comes to any form of non-verbal education more deeply (and practically useful) Swedish gymnastics, no really respectable person no one really respected University or Church will not have this puzzled. Verbality leery of non-verbalist; rationalists fear the given, non-rational fact; the point of view of intellectuals: "what we perceive by the eye (or any other way) alien to us as such and should not impress us deeply." In addition, the issue of education in the field of nonverbal Humanities does not fall into any of the accepted cells. It is not a religion, not neurology, not gymnastics, not ethics or civics, not even experimental psychology. Therefore, from the point of view of academic and theological question does not exist and it can be easily ignored completely or with a patronising smile leave to those whom the Pharisees of verbal Orthodoxy call cranks, quacks, charlatans or unqualified Amateurs.

Success is not a goal but a way of thinking. This way, you can create, and it will become a reality. The success also is ethics - ethics of respect for herself, her emotional balance. No one can crush you more successful than you are.
