    Murder and stealing are acts, not virtues. It's not exceptions. Basically both are bad because they are unjust, you take out the right of someone, right to life, right to their property. So those acts are always bad, and they are bad by definition as well, it's implied in the words: there is no good murder or good stealing. It's true that in some cases, we don't have words for the extremes, but it does not mean they aren't there, but I think like most moderns, you think virtues are just some value in-between two values, but it's not the case. The point of a virtue is the potential to act reasonably towards that just middle, it's the habit of doing that over and over again, or just be ready mentally for it if there is no circumstance that warrants it. It's not about do this or do that, like a law or a value would do, it's about giving general categories to think about, two extremes to consider with the just middle, and adapt to the situation through reasoning the means to achieve it. If you achieve the mean, you gave a good example for others. So virtues are art, not values. There is just no art of killing, or arts of stealing, because they are against the law and unjust. People that do those arts would be called clever, not virtuous. Clever in doing bad things.

  • @Seagull780
    @Seagull7803 жыл бұрын

    I'd agree with Aristotle on the moderation part. Too much murder is bad. Too little murder is also bad. Imagine you see a man who is about to kill multiple innocent people. Many would agree that killing this man now is not bad. I guess the term used shouldn't be murder but hesitance to kill. Too little hesitance to kill and you will kill unjustifiably. Too much and you will not kill when it is necessary to prevent terrible consequences. Same for adultery. Adultery usually stems from a lack of sexual restraint. Too little sexual restraint and you will become an adulterer. Too much and you won't be able o bring joy to your partner/reproduce. Murder and adultery in and of themselves aren't virtues, in as much as a man can have courage, can have pride, can have hesitance to kill, but he cannot have murder and he cannot have adultery. Those are the result of his extreme character traits, not traits themselves but rather the result of traits. You should be careful when classifying these things. For example while I agree with Aristotle on virtues, I think the opposite of that principle on opinions. I think in many cases opinions are the result of compromises, and assuming there can only be one truth, it's unlikely it is found in the compromise, because if only one of the original opinions is true, the compromise will always be false, and the truth is in one of the extremes. For example two people claim 2+2=4 and 2+2=6. The compromise would be 2+2=5, which is false. On the other hand it might be that two opinions are not mutually exclusive even if they may seem to be at first, in which case it might be that both are true.

    Yeah, for the murder/rape question, I think it is better to call it killing and/or sex. Because Murder is the extreme unlawful version of killing, and Rape is the extreme unlawful version of sex.

    It always baffled me why Plato (and his Socrates) were much more well known in the west. While Aristotle was much better known in Muslim and Jewish culture. He is probably the most respected non Jewish scholar in judaism. As one of (if not most) the most important, Jewish secular and religious scholars, maimonides based a lot of his work on him, and gave him a lot of credit. But even before that, even though Plato's point of view on God is very similar to traditional judaism thought (as noted by philo, or plato's neoplatonian nickname as the greek moses). Rabbis chose to imbrace Aristotlian philosophy as the basis to secular ethics (basically how a man should live his life after obeying the rules of god). He is nicknamed in judaism as "head of the philosophers" He is also known by the Muslims as "the first teacher". But you almost never see him discussed in mainstream western culture, which embraced Socrates and plato much more. Even though their philosophy seem to be much more out of line with modern western thought.

    He's not a natural fit for Christianity, "the West". Plato on the other hand is totally safe for it philosophically. It's almost the same thing. Judaism and Islam are much less spiritual, especially the latter and care more about this world than some other world. Modern western thought, like Science and Liberalism, are also very much Platonist and Christian. Science is a flight of fancy, a "theory", and it is judge by nature, the "experiment" or some other men "peer review". Liberalism is about getting to a perfect economy, creating a perfect society, looking for pure "values" like being equal. It's also about the individual first, just like Plato where you have this one guy out of the cave, or the philosopher king. It's this idea of a perfect man, which is under humanism. Aristotle starts with the senses and experience, and reasons from there strictly, so it's quite constrained, not "free thinking", it's logic all the way through, not a bit of logic and much poetry, so it's dry and not emotional, not something that can move a modern man even one bit. It's also extremely social, where virtue is based on tradition and good examples of ancestors, while politics is done for the common good, not the interest of the few which is what we want. Science especially and atheists hate him and have made propaganda against him since Galileo up to this day. They would rather worship a liar and someone wrong but an individual hero for freedom, than someone that basically created them. They will use him covertly and deny him publicly. So that's why you don't see him, but almost everything that actually works in our modern society comes from him. If not for him, people would still be praying while hoping for the end of the world and leave this "body" that makes them miserable and join the heavens.

    What's wrong with Aristotle being a platonist? I mean I agree Plato got a lot wrong, but which parts did Aristotle keep which he shouldn't have in your mind? And in what ways did the primitive science of his time hold him back? It may have held his scientific work back, but the best thing about philosophy is that most of it is just logic. It's like math. Give a man a pen and paper, infinite time and a decent amount of intellectual capability and he can create all of modern and future math. Similarly while philosophy can benefit from a framework to build it around it really requires fairly little hard data which requires science to attain.

I personally complain because i cannot allow somebody to misrepresent history. North macedonia has nothing to do with the ancient one! (which was greek in all aspects and some examples are: DNA (not slavic but greek), Language (not a dialect of bulgarian which btw is the language "north macedonia" uses, Culture (which is not the same what so ever since they have a slavic culture, and finally history which they do not possess since they were created in the 1990s

They had their ethical and moral code afterall, which i don't think was already directed on extermination Jews. Yes it was in part work of propaganda, but still all of it happened in minds of these pepole. I don't think that speech of a short man could just simply make views for them for years. It only helped in in creating a moral and ethical code for these pepole.

    Don't know if anyone had covered this before in the comments. But I'd like to discuss the matter of murder and adultery Radicals. Sure Aristotle did not explicitly state that their is a happy medium for murder and adultery but at the same time assuming this is Aristotles line of reasoning their is a fine line. Murder is wrong I do agree. But that absolute answer becomes mucky when circumstances cause if the murder was caused by a act of self preservation that would count as a ethical murder. You did not provoke violence which makes you a killer. But you didn't let the person who is intending/attempting to murder you finish the job. You therefore survived and it doesent cost on your conscious.
