The judgments of the heart between right and wrong, right and wrong, which are the purest form of morality. Morality is a deceptive mistress, for anything considered moral and immoral can be just as easily justified as the opposite in a new age. Many people with a rationalist view will describe morality as a virtue that enables the enforcement of laws and justice. An immoral action is one taken by the perpetrator believing that he or she will receive no punishment. A question then arises: why are there such distinct classifications of morality and immorality? Glaucon wants to prove that men are moral only so that justice will be done to them if something immoral or unjust is done to them. He also wants to establish that the origin of morality is not found in man himself but in the fact that he does not want immoral or unjust crimes to be committed against him. He tries to provide adequate examples, but the most preferred method for choosing a moral or immoral action is to use different historical instances with the same information. Furthermore, Glaucon also wants to prove that an immoral life is better than a moral life. He provides few examples to support his theories regarding Socrates during their battle of wits. Although I understand his theories, I choose to disagree because there are underlying circumstances that show why a man might choose to be immoral. And in many cases, these choices are not made out of preference but out of necessity. I agree with Glaucon in that wealth and power tend to lead individuals to immoral actions, but I disagree that this observation applies to all individuals. they faced the same obstacles. Morality is based on will and desire. In the telling of Plato's argument, I get the implication that each ... middle of paper ... sequences that take time but will appear due to the person's actions. In the end, while still agreeing with Glaucon on some beliefs, I continue to disagree that his findings may be true for all men in the world.BibliographyBrown, Charlotte R.
