Ethical Decisions

Ethical decisions involve choosing between right and wrong actions based on different moral philosophies. Virtue ethics emphasizes being a good person and developing moral character, focusing on virtues like honesty and kindness. Deontological ethics stresses following rules or duties; an action is right if it adheres to a set of principles, regardless of the outcome. In contrast, consequentialism considers the outcomes of actions; the right choice is the one that produces the best results. Each framework offers a different lens for evaluating moral dilemmas, guiding us toward ethical behavior.
