what is virtue
 
Reply Sun 12 Oct, 2003 10:58 am
What is virtue according to aristotle, and what is its connection to reason? Does Aristotles account of virtue require that the particular is epistemically prior to the general? Why or why not? What does it mean to say that the particualr is epistemically prior to the general and how could it be?

Sounds like a bit of homework ?

If so, virtue could mean doing it yourself !

LOL !!!
Excellent.

Virtue is purely dependent upon the values you hold dear. It is not objective or based in fact.
If your values say that murder is OK then killing people is virtuous.
If they aren't, then it isn't.

It all depends on your point of view. Young Jedi.
