Q Describe what you think is the best way to approach ethics. Your goal is to explain how we can know what makes an action moral or immoral. In doing this you must interact with the ethical theories that you have studied in class. You are not required to adopt one of these theories; you may make up your own or use one that you have come across in your research from other assignments/readings, but you can adopt one of the theories that you have studied if one of them seems best to you. Alternatively you can combine theories if you think certain aspects of various theories work and complement each other, but be careful that you do not adopt theories that contradict one another. In your thread, explain your theory and give a rationale for why you think yours is the best approach. Your argument(s) for your approach must be carefully-considered, logical arguments, not just “I feel like that would be best” or “that’s what I was raised to believe.”

Ethics are certain kinds of moral principles that administer an individual’s behavior especially when performing any activity. They are set of rules that throw impact on how individuals would make decisions and accordingly lead their lives. Ethics are mainly concerned with what is good for both the human beings as well as the society. An individual derives the concept over ethics from the religions, cultures and philosophies they come through ("BBC - Ethics - Introduction to ethics: Ethics: a general introduction", 2018). On the other hand, ethical approach is defined as an ethical action that provides the person with some great goods.
