I) Values Clarification reflects the outcome of a post-Judeo Christian era where truth is seen as relative rather than absolute. It assumes there are no external standards of right and wrong and that individuals can choose their own values.
II) Virtue Clarification aims to identify and reinforce timeless virtues like honesty, kindness, courage. Virtues are seen as universal standards that do not change over time or circumstances.
III) Critics argue that Values Clarification can lead to a "anything goes" morality where all ideas are seen as equally valid and the words "right" and "wrong" lose meaning. They say it avoids conflicts by not making judgments.
What causes people to jeopardize their own health and well-being to help other people?
What is it that inspires individuals to give their time, energy, and money to aid in the betterment of others, even when they receive nothing tangible in return?
Altruism involves the unselfish concern for other people.
It involves doing things simply out of a desire to help, not because you feel obligated to out of duty, loyalty, or religious reasons.
Everyday life is filled with small acts of altruism, from the person who offers his own seats in a Bus OLD/LADIES to the person who gives money to a Beggar or offering blanket to the shivering person on the street.
Psychological explantion for the same has been discussed
prosocialbehaviour
Voluntary actions that are intended to help or benefit another individual or group of individuals”

ALTRUISM:
Behavior that is motivated by an unselfish concern for the welfare of others.

Interpersonal attraction refers to positive feelings about another person. It can take many forms, including liking, love, friendship, lust, and admiration.Many factors influence whom people are attracted to. They include physical attractiveness,
proximity, similarity, and reciprocity:
Conformity involves changing your behaviors in order to "fit in" or "go along" with the people around you. In some cases, this social influence might involve agreeing with or acting like the majority of people in a specific group, or it might involve behaving in a particular way in order to be perceived as "normal" by the group.

9.5 Moral Theories
All moral claims are grounded in some moral theory. It is the nature of such claims that they are based on a system of beliefs about what is right and wrong, just and unjust.
The table below lists a handful of the moral theories you are most likely to encounter in ethical arguments today. It’s important to note that each one has its own strengths and weaknesses.
Moral theories give you general guidelines, but you still usually have to apply moral reasoning in individual cases to test them out. For example, none of these theories explicitly claim that killing is wrong. The theories are more about how you would ground your claim that killing is wrong.
Moral theories are also not mutually exclusive. The argument that killing is wrong could be grounded in all of these theories.
Whether they know it or not, everyone has a moral theory. It is inescapable. Even if their moral theory is that there are no morals, that still represents a moral theory. But not all moral theories are equal—some hold up to critical thinking better than others.
You may see wisdom in all of these perspectives, or you may strongly identify with a single one. Regardless, it's important for you to recognize the potential weaknesses in any moral theory you favor, and it's helpful for you to understand why others find legitimacy in the moral theories they employ.
Theory
Criticisms
Kantian Ethics
· Immanuel Kant put forth the categorical imperative, which states that you should only act on moral principles that you would be willing to turn into universal laws mandating that everyone act the same way.
· This is a version of the question, “How would you like it if everyone did that?”
Any two people who want to get married should be able to.
· This theory is so absolute that it sometimes goes against moral common sense.
It’s wrong to kiss my spouse because I would not like it if everyone kissed my spouse.
Utilitarianism
· The morally right course of action is the one that will produce the greatest amount of happiness for the greatest number of people.
· The only thing that matters is the consequences of the action, not the intentions behind the action (the ends justify the means).
· Ignores people’s rights, duties, and intentions.
· Could be used to justify an act that most would consider morally wrong because it inflicts harm on one person unjustly, even if it brings great happiness to many others.
It’s okay to steal money from my neighbor and take my family on a vacation, because then my whole family would be happy, and only my neighbor would be harmed.
Ethical Egoism
· Doing whatever is best for your own interests or would make you happy.
· This is not necessarily the same thing as doing whatever you want in the moment, because that might not be in your best interests in the long term.
· Can be used to justify terrible actions.
Ethical Altruism
· Doing whatever is best for others or would bring the greatest amount of happiness to people besides yourself.
· Some.

Social Justice as a Form of Discourse Impacting Identity for Action
By Philip S. Mirci, Ph.D. (2015)Introduction
Richard Paul (1992) wrote:
Because we do not come to our experience with a blank slate for a mind, because our thinking is already, at any given moment, moving in a direction, because we can form new ideas, beliefs, and patterns of thought only through the scaffolding of our previously formed thought, it is essential that we learn to think critically in environments in which a variety of competing ideas are taken seriously. … Knowledge is discovered by thinking, analyzed by thinking, organized by thinking, transformed by thinking… There is no way to take the thinking out of knowledge, or the struggle out of thinking, just as there is no way to create a neat and tidy step-by-step path to knowledge that all minds can mindlessly follow … But thinking requires counter-thinking, opposition and challenge, as well as support. We need reasons meaningful to us, some persuasive logic, to move our minds from one set of ideas or beliefs to another. In other words, we must “argue” ourselves out of our present thinking and into thinking that is more or less novel to us if we are to gain genuine knowledge [Critical thinking: what every person needs to survive in a rapidly changing world. Santa Rosa, CA: The Foundation for Critical Thinking, p. xi].
The search for truth and knowledge is one of the finest attributes of man ― though often it is most loudly voiced by those who strive for it the least.
The world we have made as a result of the level of thinking we have done thus far creates problems that cannot be solved at the same level of thinking at which we created them.
Constructivism, as a learning theory, was consistent with neuroscience research: the brain makes sense of experience by accessing its own existing knowledge base in order to interpret that experience. Furthermore, one’s identity is connected to this sense-making process. Thus, one’s own knowledge about self, others, and the world is limited. Intellectual humility is the discipline of bringing this awareness to different methods of knowing. Stephen Freeman (2000) summarized three different methods of knowing that were first stated by Charles Peirce in 1940:
The first method of knowing, the method of tenacity, states that people hold firm to truths they “know” are true. In establishing these truths there may be a tendency to omit evidence that does not support our beliefs and to find and include that, which does. This represents the well-known problem of objectivity. Frequent repetition or re-indoctrination of these assumptions or truths enhances their validity. This, simply stated, means one finds what one looks for…
The second method of knowing is the method of authority or established belief. This method has the weight of tradition and public sanction behind it. Many of the things we think we know have been handed down by tradition. People have also .
Thinking of getting a dog? Be aware that breeds like Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, and German Shepherds can be loyal and dangerous. Proper training and socialization are crucial to preventing aggressive behaviors. Ensure safety by understanding their needs and always supervising interactions. Stay safe, and enjoy your furry friends!

2. Values
Clarification
“Everything we do,
every decision we
make and course
of action we take,
is based on our
consciously or
unconsciously held
beliefs, attitudes
and values.”
Simon et al.,
1978, p. 13
Sidney Simon
= expert in
VC
3. Values Clarification
Values = what we believe to be important
Clarification = to identify and make clear
what is important
Values are:
individual
subject to change
are demonstrated by the way we live (time,
money, and energy)
4. Virtue Clarification
Virtue = has an external reference point. It
may or may not line up with what I value as to
be important
Clarification = to identify and make clear what
is a virtue
Virtues are:
Corporate and apply universally
Not subject to change by time or
circumstances
are demonstrated by the way we live (time,
money, and energy)
5. Both Are Identical in the Above Way
Values
A Value may be defined as:
A strongly held belief chosen
from among alternatives
After careful consideration of
the consequences of each
alternative
That is both prized and
esteemed
Publicly stated
Publicly acted upon
And repeated in one’s daily
living
Virtues
A Virtue may be defined as:
A strongly held belief chosen
from among alternatives
After careful consideration of
the consequences of each
alternative
That is both prized and
esteemed
Publicly stated
Publicly acted upon
And repeated in one’s daily
living

time honored virtues – honesty, integrity, kindness,

8. Criticisms Of Values Clarification
Everyone has values. Adolf Hitler had values.
Mother Theresa had values.
Virtue implies right and wrong which leads to the
discomfort of guilt or judgementalism by others if
the virtue is not accepted.
Value clarification leads to a guilt free choosing.
All ideas have equal validity. It avoids conflicts.
Nothing is right or wrong but just “is”
Value clarification is a premise of a philosophy
known as “Post Modernism”.
9. I) Values Clarification reflects the Outcome of a Post Judea Christian
era (French Revolution until now) of Ideas:
Nietzsche’s perspectivism or relativism. It depends on where one comes from our
demographic, age, ethnicity, gender - truth is ultimately really fiction. Subjectivity rules. All
things are relative. A Judea Christian perspective simply is one of many ideas at the table of
choices. An external reference point does not exist whether it is reason or God.
Criticisms Of Values Clarification
Example of extreme Nietzsche’s Paradigm
"A new and magical understanding of the world
is on the rise, one based on will rather than truth.
There is no truth, in either the scientific or the
moral sense."
- Adolf Hitler
10. Postmodern Morality
How dare say anything I do or say could be wrong? You make me so angry! The
better way: Make up your own morals as you go. Banish the words right or wrong,
good or bad, or truth or a lie. Never admit or confess to a thing. Shame, blame,
judgementalism, and guilt will cease. Be French about it already, say
“unacceptable or I don’t agree...”
11. The Present – An Ethics Crisis
• Resurgence – fashionable but transient
• Preventive in Approach – “avoid being caught”
• Tends to be more in a social context than with an individual’s quest for
personal virtuosity
• It is taught presuming man is inherently good not prone to wrong.
Individual hypocrisy, selfishness, cruelty and envy are merely glanced at
or ignored.
• Paradox: Education has sought a value neutral world eradicating terms of
right and wrong as judgmental lest someone be offended.
12. Addressing an Ethics
(Virtue) Crisis
We Seek to Address Symptoms not Causes
The founders had a consensus of convictions evil was real. Checks
and balances were necessary in life.
Senator Moynihan “Americans have “defined deviancy down”
Dostoyevsky “If God is dead, and there is no future life nothing would
be immoral any longer, everything would be permitted”
Traditional definitions of “virtues and vices” that address the unique
value of every individual yet the conscious effort to resist the heavy
gravity of the presence and power of evil have faded away from
the conscious of the culture.
13. Start Somewhere
Virtues
An awkward word filled with
connotations of stiff self
righteousness or
judgmentalism
Suffers the danger of legalism
and moralism
Start somewhere with
definitions to roll back the
confusion and fog! – tradition
can help
Vices
An awkward word out of
date only mentioned of
the Police Vice Squad –
gambling, prostitution
etc.
A word really meant to
address the loss of self
control
Example of all types of
“anonymous” recovery
groups
14. Ethics (Virtues): Historical Legacy
Greek & Roman Philosophers
“virtue was that excellence
which causes something to
perform its purpose well” –
“virtue of a horse or a sharp
blade”
Example: “vice” was a matter
of excess or deficit – to face
death too much fear a coward
(deficit) too little fear (excess)
reckless – right amount -
courage
Old and New Testament – out
of which came 7 deadly sins –
after centuries of reflection
Pride
Envy
Anger
Sloth
Avarice
Gluttony
Lust
15. Definitions
Pride: Self-absorption
Envy: Wanting what others have with resentment
Anger: Willing of harm and destruction of others verbally
or physically
Sloth: lethargy towards God, the good, the ideal
Avarice: Grasping on to earthly possessions
Gluttony: to consume too much of anything
Lust: the desire for every attractive body
16. Five Reminders
I. Remember the place of discipline – training ourselves to do what we
cannot ordinarily do
II. Remember deception – our utility sin that assists all other sinning
III. Remember the danger of moralism – our ugly counterfeit of virtue
IV. Remember that differences make a difference – our unwelcomed
insistence in a day of pluralism
V. Remember demonstration – virtue embodied in action
