Ethics Morality Australia and America in the past have been known as major proponents of human rights. And it is important that this status doesn't change due to political or religious pressures. Everyone born in these countries have certain unalienable rights. These rights must be safeguarded as sacred. Introduction As earlier stated everyone has certain unalienable rights. Our Founding Fathers deemed these necessary Universal Truths. Thomas Jefferson used a quote from John Locke "a peoples’ inalienable right to “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”. “The necessity of pursuing happiness [is] the foundation of liberty. As therefore the highest perfection of intellectual nature lies in a careful and constant pursuit of true and solid happiness; so the care of ourselves, that we mistake not imaginary for real happiness, is the necessary foundation of our liberty. The stronger ties we have to an unalterable pursuit of happiness in general, which is our greatest good, and which, as such, our desires always follow, the more are we free from any necessary determination of our will to any particular action…” (1894, p. 348) And the Good book reveals to us to heed a warning about our rights and freedom. The quote is in the Bible the book of Ephesians 6:11 - 12 that reads: 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the (d)evil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Rights as an American The Bill of Rights The Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution in the form of amendments. The chief purpose of the amendments was to protect the rights of individuals from the government's interference. They guarantee rights such as religious freedom, freedom of the press, and trial by jury to all American citizens. First Amendment: Freedom… -
Personality Self-sovereignty Self-Sovereignty, self-ownership, also known as sovereignty of the individual or individual sovereignty, is the concept of personal property. The property is expressed as the moral or natural right of a person to have independent bodily integrity, and be the exclusive controller of one's own body and life. Self-ownership is a central idea in several political philosophies that emphasize individualism, such as libertarianism, liberalism, and anarchism. The Self A discussion of the boundaries withing the self and its ownership and responsibility has been explored by legal scholar Meir Dan-Cohen in his essays on The Value of Ownership and Responsibility and the Boundaries of the Self. In his work Dan-Cohen illuminates the phenomenology of ownership and our common usage of personal pronouns to apply to both body and property—this serves as the folk basis for legal conceptions and debates about responsibility and ownership. Another view holds that labor is alienable because it can be contracted out, thus alienating it from the self. In this view, the choice of a person to voluntarily sell oneself into slavery is also preserved by the principle of self-ownership. And argument for the self can be raised, if I wasn't attached at the hips to you at birth, I am certainly not attached to you, except by choice, at any other time in my life. Thank you for reading!
