ABSTRACT
Human beings have long worried about how they should live, and act; often they make decisions about good and bad ways of acting; they form views about good and bad ways of living. In other words, they engage in what they consider to be worthwhile moral living, i.e. in action and ethical thinking. or they take morality for granted, as a ‘given’ in their culture and religious or mythological heritage. What then is ‘ethics’ and the task of ethical thinking?
