answer the first two and respond to the classmates answer to the third question
1.Do you think the Catholic bishops were right when they wrote “An unjust law cannot be obeyed”? Why? Is their statement ambiguous? How?
2. What is the argument that some utilitarians have used to support the view of absolute pacifism? Do you agree with that argument? Why?
respond to the classmates answer to the third question. Do you agree or disagree and reason
3.Explain how Kant’s theory of ethics has been used to argue in favor of the absolute pacifist view?
– Absolute pacifists view that war and violence is always wrong and should never be used. Kant’s theory of ethics holds that dignity of the human person implies that every human being has a right not to be killed and a right not to be subjected to violence. This is used to argue in favor of the absolute pacifist view by saying that because war creates violence and death among people it makes war absolutely immoral.
