ABSTRACT

In a morally well-integrated person the idea of the good and the feeling for it influences everything, and in that sense is present on the most particular occasions. It can be seen that any form of utilitarianism offers a kind of answer to the difficulty faced by a deontological view. The idea of ends and means is no doubt included in many, possibly all, moral judgments. In giving money to a deserving object, people certainly consider the ways in which the money may be a means to the good end. The good is the dominating influence, infusing the right. The teleological aspect, is one in which the action is regarded rather as means to end, or as a cause of events in the future. The teleological becomes assimilated into a larger kind of kallideontic judgment. Discursiveness is swallowed up in knowledge of the individual. The ideal right action will have to satisfy as far as possible both aspects of right.
