Writing Assignment 3C: Questions about the videos Please answer the following as related to the “Catholic Healthcare: Mission and Identity (Regarding the Person)” video:1. According to Fr. Himes, in the video, the dignity of the human being is held together in the human being’s ability to “give one’s self away.”  What does he mean by this?2. What are we doing, according to Fr. Himes, when we tend to the bodily and mental health of others?  How are we “doing what God is”?Please answer the following as related to the “Do Rules Define Morality?” video:1.  Kant claimed that we experience morality as a conflict, our moral duty pulls us in one direction, while our bodily desires (emotions, feelings, sympathies, inclinations) pull us in another.  But humans are able to rise above their bodily desires and self-interest they are able to act according to __________________________.2.  For Kant moral right and wrong do not depend on the exterior consequences of our actions or on achieving happiness.  Instead, right and wrong dependon the interior choices of reason.  Moral goodness lies _________________________, in our will: the ability of our reason to choose for itself.  “It is impossible to think of anything in the universe, or even beyond it, that is good without qualification except a__________________________.  A good will is not good because of the actions it carries out or the effects it brings about.  Nor does goodness depend on its ability to achieve certain results.  A good will is good simply in virtue of its willing.  That is, its goodness lies in itself.”3.  For Kant, to act according to reason is to act as we believe all humans should act.  It is to follow rules we believe it is everyone’s_________________________ to follow.  Kant laid out his ideas on ethics in a short book, The Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals.  Here he introduces some new terms.  A maxim he says is a rule that one person follows.  A universal law is a rule that applies toeveryone.  Kant summarizes his ethics in a principle he  calls _________________________________________.                                                                                                     4.  The strength of Kantian ethics appeals to our intuitions that most well brought up people in our culture have, and these include thenotion that the heart of immorality typically is to treat yourself as an _________________________.  To do something that you wouldn’t want other people to do.5. Kant’s 2 versions of the categorical imperative sound very different, yet they are closely connected to the same social ideal from theEnlightenment.  This is the idea that we all belong to a community of ________________ and  ________________ persons. 6. Indeed, Kant’s ethical ideas have been adapted and modified by later philosophers.  But Kant did not die young.  Starting in his mid-50s he turned out books which set new directions for virtually every branch of philosophy.  In the closing passing from the Critique of Practical Reason, the young admirer of Newton, and the much older ethicist, seemed to speak together: “Two things move the mind with ever increasing admiration and awe the more often and more steadily we reflect on them:the ____________________________________above and the __________________________________ within.”
