The Ethical Theories of Immanuel Kant: Description, Application and Criticisms
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 12 page paper discussing the ethical theories of Immanuel Kant. German philosopher Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) proposed categorical imperatives in his theories of ethics which disregarded aspects of the theories of utilitarianism and instead advocated the importance of rationality, morality and preservation of human dignity in the justification of moral decisions. In this way he ventured that individuals should act in ways in which their actions would be willed into universal law and these same actions would apply to everyone and in the vital treatment of humanity should be considered as an end in itself in actions and decisions. The justice behind Kant’s theories provide a basis for moral decision making which are still applied across many disciplines today through the promotion of human dignity and universal application.

10 pages in length. Man's struggle to assert his rights as a human has existed ever since humanity realized its inherent separation from the rest of the living world. Through the centuries, this perpetual quest for upholding said rights has been met with great resistance from those who believe that only a select few should be granted the privilege of human rights. Philosophers have spent endless hours determining exactly what the concept of rights truly means, with the general consensus reflecting the respect for and appreciation of one's own unrestricted distinctiveness amidst the broader social spectrum.

The Existence of God: Presentation of an Atheist and Theist Argument
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 10 page paper presenting an argument about the existence of God from an atheist and theist standpoint ending in favor of the theist. Generally the arguments for the existence of God center on five different approaches: the argument of contingency, the argument from design, the ontological argument, the argument as a presupposition of values and morals, and the argument for proof by religious experience. The argument of design of the universe, or teleological arguments based on science are those most often proposed by atheists (A) although theists (T) do have comparable arguments as rebuttal and the arguments of morals and values provide the most sound base. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
