The document discusses utilitarianism and the pursuit of pleasure. It questions whether taking the pursuit of happiness too far as an individual or society is possible. It suggests that if no one works to earn money because it lowers pleasure, society would shut down as nothing gets done. It proposes two laws a utilitarian government may have: requiring people to work or contribute to society, and still requiring payment for goods. It provides the examples of sports and war as encouraging discomfort but being valuable - sports keep you healthy and wars may protect what you love. The author's personal opinion is that maximizing happiness and minimizing suffering for all as individuals is a nice idea but not achievable for most, as constant happiness would make dealing with problems difficult

UTILITARIANISM
Utilitarianism
is the moral doctrine that we should always act to produce the greatest possible balance of good over bad for everyone affected by our actions. By “good,” utilitarians understand happiness or pleasure. Thus, the greatest happiness of all constitutes the standard that determines whether an action is right or wrong. Although the basic theme of utilitarianism is present in the writings of many earlier thinkers, Jeremy Bentham (1748–1832) and John Stuart Mill (1806–1873) were the first to develop the theory explicitly and in detail. Both Bentham and Mill were philosophers with a strong interest in legal and social reform. They used the utilitarian standard to evaluate and criticize the social and political institutions of their day—for example, the prison system and the disenfranchisement of women. As a result, utilitarianism has long been associated with social improvement.
Utilitarianism tells us to bring about the most happiness for everyone affected by our actions.
Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill were important early utilitarians.
Bentham viewed a community as no more than the individual persons that it comprises. The interests of the community are simply the sum of the interests of its members. An action promotes the interests of an individual when it adds to the individual’s pleasure or diminishes the person’s pain. Correspondingly, an action augments the happiness of a community only insofar as it increases the total amount of individual happiness. This is what Bentham had in mind when he argued for the utilitarian principle that actions are right if they promote the greatest human welfare, wrong if they do not.
For Bentham, pleasure and pain are merely types of sensations. He offered a “hedonic calculus” of six criteria for evaluating pleasure and pain exclusively by their quantitative differences—in particular, by their intensity and duration. This calculus, he believed, makes possible an objective determination of the morality of anyone’s conduct, individual or collective, on any occasion.
Bentham rejected any distinctions based on the type of pleasure except insofar as they might indicate differences in quantity. Thus, if equal amounts of pleasure are involved, throwing darts is as good as writing poetry and baking a cake as good as composing a symphony; watching Shakespeare’s
Hamlet
has no more value than watching
Jersey Shore.
Although he himself was an intelligent, cultivated man, Bentham maintained that there is nothing intrinsically better about refined and intellectual pleasures than about crude or prosaic ones. The only issue is which yields the greater amount of enjoyment.

Utilitarianism
Utilitarianism focuses on maximizing pleasure and happiness while minimizing pain and unhappiness. However, taken to an extreme, utilitarianism could make a society or individual miserable. It is impossible to meet every individual need in a society, creating tension between minorities. Additionally, if individuals solely pursue their own happiness, society makes no progress. To balance individual and social needs, laws may need to establish that no one can interfere with another's happiness or pleasure, though enforcing such laws could prove difficult. While utilitarianism aims to maximize happiness, some discomfort or unhappiness may be necessary to achieve goals like improved health, education, or teamwork through sports or school. Overall, utilitarianism works best not as a
Utilitarianism
While utilitarianism aims to maximize happiness, taking it too far could harm others and society. Some level of rules and control are needed to prevent people from sacrificing others or the environment solely for their own gain. A purely utilitarian system could descend into chaos, but incorporating utilitarian ideals with other philosophies could help a society function well while still promoting overall well-being.

Utilitarianism
Utilitarianism aims to achieve maximum happiness and benefit for the greatest number of people. It judges the morality of actions based solely on their consequences - whether they produce more benefit and utility than harm. For utilitarians, the ends justify the means, as long as the action produces the greatest good for society overall, regardless of personal interests or established rules. There are two primary forms: rule utilitarianism, which focuses on following rules to maximize utility, and act utilitarianism, which is only concerned with the consequences of individual actions.

This document discusses the ideology of utilitarianism, which aims to maximize happiness and pleasure for all individuals in a society. However, it can be difficult to achieve happiness for all, as different people may have different views of what constitutes happiness. Pursuing individual pleasure too far could jeopardize others' happiness. While utilitarianism could be beneficial if a society agreed on what makes people happy, in reality one person's happiness may cause misery for others. The document provides some examples of how laws or policies aimed at achieving the greatest good for all could require some individuals to experience pain or unhappiness through actions like paying taxes or military service.

This document discusses the evolution and development of business ethics as an academic field. It traces some of the earliest influences on business ethics from ancient Greek philosophers like Epicurus and Sophocles. It then outlines the development of two main approaches - utilitarianism as developed by Bentham and Mill, which focuses on maximizing happiness, and deontological ethics as developed by Kant, which focuses on duties and rules. The document also summarizes some of the strengths and criticisms of each approach. Finally, it provides an overview of how business ethics became institutionalized as an academic field from the 1970s onward through increased writings, conferences, and incorporation into university curriculums.

PHIL 212: Introductory Ethics Module 10/Normative Ethics: Consequentialism
Deciding What’s Right
(Before reading the following lecture, you should review
the RealPlayer presentation for Module Ten, entitled
“Utilitarianism Then and Now”)
The Truth of Consequences
In the slide show for this module, I outlined the most recent
developments in utilitarian theory that we first encountered
in Hume and in Module Seven. This section of readings
also includes criticisms of this powerful and suggestive
theory, which counts among its adherents the editor of your
textbook, Peter Singer. Utilitarianism differs from the
theories of right discussed in Modules Eight and Nine is
that it is a consequentialist theory—it treats consequences of our actions as most
important in determining right and wrong.
I. Bentham: the hedonistic calculus
A. BACKGROUND
Please see the first section of Module Seven for background on Jeremy Bentham.
B. THE ARGUMENT
1. If David Hume was the grandfather of utilitarianism (he was apparently the first
one to use the term “utility” to mean “productive of happiness”), then Jeremy
Bentham is its proud father and one of its best-known exponents. In this excerpt
from his Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation, he provides a
succinct yet wide-ranging discussion of the “principle of utility,” the supreme
moral principle of utilitarianism (just as the categorical imperative was the
supreme moral principle in Kant’s ethics). Here’s Bentham’s statement of the
principle: “…[T]hat principle which approves or disapproves of every action
whatsoever, according to the tendency which it appears to have to augment or
diminish the happiness of the party whose interest is in question; or what is the
same thing in other words, to promote or to oppose that happiness. I say of every
action whatsoever; and therefore not only of every action of a private individual,
but of every measure of government” (p. 307). There are a few key points about
utilitarianism that are lodged in here, and a few others that Bentham doesn’t state
but that are implied:
• By “augment or diminish the happiness,” Bentham means “increase or
decrease pleasure and pain.” (see p. 306).
• Bentham’s phrasing of the principle is a bit vague when he says “the
happiness of the part whose interest is in question,” since the principle
tells us not only to consider our own interest, but also that of others.
J. S. Mill
PHIL 212: Introductory Ethics Module 10/Normative Ethics: Consequentialism
Deciding What’s Right
• And what others? Most utilitarians think that we need to consider the
interests of any sentient beings—that is, any beings who can feel pleasure
and pain. That includes many animals, as well as all humans.
• Finally, note that Bentham intends this principle to apply not only to
private moral decisions, but also “every measure of government.” Here is
his concern with publi.
UTILITARIANISM.pptx, pptx,pptx,pptx,pptx
Utilitarianism is an ethical theory that determines the morality of actions based on their consequences. It holds that the morally right action is the one that will produce the greatest good for the greatest number of people. Classic utilitarian philosophers like Jeremy Bentham, John Stuart Mill, and Henry Sidgwick argued that pleasure is the only intrinsic good and pain the only intrinsic bad. They advocated acting in a way that maximizes net happiness in the world by increasing pleasure and reducing pain for all affected individuals.

It was developed by Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill and holds that an action is morally right if its consequences lead to happiness. The document outlines several reasons for the importance of utilitarianism, including that it aims to create happier lives, yields common sense results, does not require prior religious beliefs, and relates to observable real world actions and consequences. While utilitarianism considers the happiness of all people, in everyday life individuals need only consider the good of those involved, but thinking as a utilitarian can help develop society and countries socially and economically.
Utilitarianism (good)
Utilitarianism is an ethical theory that evaluates actions based on their consequences. Key scholars include Jeremy Bentham, John Stuart Mill, Henry Sidgwick, G.E. Moore, and others. Bentham advocated act utilitarianism, judging each act based on its consequences. Mill argued some pleasures are of higher quality than others. Sidgwick viewed justice as treating similar cases similarly. Moore proposed ideal utilitarianism where friendship and beauty have intrinsic value beyond maximizing happiness.
Utilitarianism
Utilitarianism aims to maximize happiness and minimize unhappiness for the greatest number of people. However, taken to an extreme, it could damage society or even cost lives. A utilitarian society may have unfair laws, such as everyone receiving the same wage regardless of work, or children only attending school when they want. While some uncomfortable activities like school or military service provide long-term benefits, utilitarianism risks minimizing individual freedoms and motivation for personal success in favor of collective happiness. Overall, the document argues that utilitarianism is not a good philosophy for society because it fails to value individual lives and achievements.
Life Option
The document discusses Buddha's teachings on suffering and the path to liberation. It states that Buddha taught the Four Noble Truths to show that there is a solution to suffering through cultivating compassion and understanding interdependence, rather than a self-centered mind. It argues that Buddha did not say life is entirely suffering, but that individuals have a choice through their consciousness to follow either a path of happiness or suffering based on their actions.
Philosophy Essay on "What to pursue to have a good life?"
1) The document discusses different philosophical perspectives on how to pursue a good life, including hedonism, ethical egoism, and focusing on others' interests.
2) Ntozake Shange advocates for a philosophy of hedonism where one prioritizes their own pleasure over moral concerns. However, the document argues this has loopholes because internal satisfaction cannot be gained from harming others.
3) Epicurus provides arguments for not fearing God or death and for accepting what nature provides in order to be happy, but the document says this view only works for atheists and a good life requires good deeds.
4) Overall, the document concludes that true happiness comes from sacrifice and fulfilling one's duties
Utilitarianism
This document provides an overview of utilitarian moral philosophy as developed by Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill. It discusses key concepts of utilitarianism like consequentialism, hedonism, and producing the greatest good for the greatest number. It also examines criticisms of utilitarianism and how Mill attempted to address these criticisms through his concept of rule utilitarianism and emphasizing the quality of happiness over just the quantity.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

Writing warm
- 1. Writing Warm-up; Utilitarianism Thomas Hedstrom Social 30-1 Is it possible to take the pursuit of pleasure/happiness too far as an individual or society?: Yes it is possible to take the pursuit of happiness and pleasure too far. As a society people work to earn both money and do something at the same time that helps the community running. But if the individual decides that they don’t have to work because it lowers the pleasure of life. Soon no one is working and the society shuts down because nothing is being done. What sorts of laws might they have if the government encourages to pursue pleasure as the highest good? One law might be that people have to work or at least contribute to society to insure its survival. A second law might be that people still have to pay for goods purchased from places. Think of activities which may encourage discomfort or "pain" that are valuable or worthwhile - find two hypothetical or real world examples and explain them. One thing that encourages pain and discomfort is sports. A sport can be tenuous and can cause pain, stress and injury but keep you healthy, occupied and makes you happy. Another thing that encourages pain is wars. Yes wars are bad but sometimes they protect what you love and cherish. A utilitarian might support wars to keep the greater good available. What is your personal opinion of the utilitarian idea that everything we as individuals must maximize happiness and minimize suffering? My personal opinion of the Utilitarian idea is that it would be nice if achievable and for some it is but for most it’s not. If you were always happy and pleased then when the slightest thing goes wrong it screws you up. You would also get bored of everything being perfect. You can’t have a sunny day without some rainy ones. What I’m saying is that I am against the utilitarian idea.
