Introduction
Ethics deals with principles of ethical behaviour in modern society at the level of the person,
society and in interaction with environmental and other shared resources.
Morality pertains to the standards of the right and wrong that an individual originally picks up
from the community. The course discusses the context and principles of ethical behaviour in modern
society at the level of individual, society, and in interaction with the environment and other shared
resources. The course also teaches students to make moral decisions by using dominant moral
frameworks and by applying a seven-step moral reasoning model to analyse and solve moral
dilemmas.
The course is organized according to the three main elements of the moral experience: (a)
agent, including context – cultural, communal, and environmental; (b) the act, and (c) reason or
framework (for the act).
You will complete this course for one semester. This course is composed of four
modules, namely:
Module 1 – Introduction to Ethics: Foundation of Moral Valuation

MY WARM-UP
“The universe doesn’t give you what you ask for with your thoughts; it gives you what
you demand with your actions (Dr. Steve Maraboli).” Every day we act. Nothing happens
until something moves. However, sometimes we failed to identify whether our actions are
subject to morality or not. This failure leads to a failed judgment.

MY READING TEXT
Meaning of Acts of Man and Human Acts
Human Acts are those actions which man performs knowingly, freely, and voluntarily.
These actions are the result of conscious knowledge and are subject to the control of the
will. We refer to these actions as deliberate, intentional, or voluntary. Acts of man on the
other hand are those actions which happen in man. They are instinctive and are not within
the control of the will.
For an act to be considered a human act, it must possess the following characteristics: 1.)
It must be performed by a conscious agent who is aware of what he is doing and of its
consequences. 2.) It must be performed by an agent who is acting freely, that is, by his own
volition and power. 3.) It must be performed by an agent who decides wilfully to perform
the act. Human acts must, therefore, be knowing, free, and willful.
There are two kind of human acts namely: Elicited acts and Commanded acts. Elicited
acts are those performed by the will and are not bodily externalized. Paul Glenn enumerates
the following elicited acts: 1.) Wish which is the tendency of the will towards something,
whether this be realizable or not. 2.) Intention which is the tendency of the will towards
something attainable but without necessarily committing oneself to attain it. 3.) Consent
which is the acceptance of the will of those needed to carry out the intention. 4.) Election

which is the selection of the will of those means effective enough to carry out the intention.
5.) Use which is the command of the will to make use of those means elected to carry out
the intention. 6.) Fruition which is the enjoyment of the will derived from the attainment of
the thing he had desired earlier.
Commanded acts are those done either by man’s mental or bodily powers under the
command of the will. They are either internal or external actions. Examples of internal
actions are conscious reasoning, recalling something, encouraging oneself, controlling
aroused emotions and others. Examples of external actions are walking, eating, dancing,
laughing, listening, reading and others. Some actions are combinations of internal and
external movements such as, listening, studying, and reading, driving a car, writing a letter or
playing chess.

Task 3
“If there's a single lesson that life teaches us, it's that wishing doesn't make it so.”
(Lev Grossman) Wish is the tendency of the will towards something, whether this be
realizable or not. It is what motivates us to do an action. However, wish is just all in the
minds when it is not performed. It will just remain idea when it not put into reality.

CONNECTING WHAT I LEARNED
Human acts are actions done by a person with full knowledge and acted freely. Freedom is
necessary for an action to be considered subject to morality. St. Augustine taught that
“true freedom is not choice or lack of constraint, but being what you are meant to be.
Humans were created in the image of God. True freedom, then, is not found in moving away
from that image but only in living it out.”

Classification of actions
Actions are classified into:

1. Moral actions are those actions which are in conformity with the norm of morality.
They are good actions and are permissible. Working, studying, paying a debt, telling the
truth, loving a friend are moral actions.
2. Immoral actions are those which are not in conformity with the norm of morality.
They are bad or evil and are not permissible. Refusing to help the needy, committing
murder, adultery, stealing, telling lies are immoral actions.
3. Amoral actions are those actions which stand neutral in relation to the norm of
morality. They are neither good nor bad in themselves. But certain amoral actions may
become good or bad because of the circumstances attendant to them. Playing a basketball is
an amoral act, but playing basketball when one is supposed to be attending class is wrong.
Playing basketball out of sense of duty to the team is good.
Voluntariness
Voluntariness came from the Latin word voluntas- referred to the Will. It is essential
to an act. Without it, an act is just a mere act of man. Here is the distinction of voluntariness;
1.) Perfect voluntariness which is present in a person who fully knows and fully intends an
act. A man who, wanting to get even, takes a gun and shoots his enemy is said to be acting
with perfect voluntariness. 2.) Imperfect voluntariness which is present in a person who acts
without fully realizing what he means to do, or without fully intending the act. A drunken
man might act irrationally without fully realizing what he is doing; or, a woman, in terror,
might jump out of a window without fully intending to kill herself. 3.) Conditional
voluntariness is present in a person who is forced by circumstances beyond his control to
perform an act which he would do under normal conditions. A child who is intimidated by his
mother to study the lesson is acting with conditional voluntariness. 4.) Simple voluntariness
which is present in a person doing an act wilfully, regardless of whether he likes to do it or
not. It is either positive or negative. It is positive when the act requires the performance of
an activity, such as polishing the floor, paying rent, or playing tennis. It is negative when an
act requires the omission of activity, such as not taking the prohibited drugs, remaining
quiet, or not listening to the radio.

MY READING TEXT
Modifiers of Human Acts
Modifiers are factors that influence man’s inner disposition towards certain actions.
They affect the mental or emotional state of a person to the extent that the voluntariness
involved in an act is either increased or decreased.
Principle: “The greater the knowledge and the freedom, the greater the voluntariness and
the moral responsibility.” (Panizo)
1. Ignorance
Ignorance is the absence of knowledge which a person ought to possess.
a. Vincible ignorance can easily be reminded through ordinary diligence and
reasonable efforts. The ignorance of a visitor regarding a particular address in a certain place
is vincible, since he can easily ask for information from a policeman or pedestrian.
b. Invincible ignorance is the type which a person possesses without being aware of
it, or, having awareness of it, lacks the means to rectify it. The ignorance regarding a missing
persons or objects is often invincible.
c. Affected ignorance is a type which a person keeps by positive efforts in order to
escape responsibility or blame. It is affected ignorance when an employee refuses to read a
memo precisely so that he may be exempted from its requirement.
Principles:
1. Invincible ignorance renders an act involuntary. A person cannot be held morally liable if
he is not aware of his state of ignorance. A waiter who is not aware that the food he is
serving has been poisoned cannot be held for murder.
2. Vincible ignorance does not destroy, but lessens the voluntariness and the corresponding
accountability over the act. A person who becomes aware of the state of ignorance he is in
has the moral obligation to rectify it by exercising reasonable diligence in seeking the needed
information.
3. Affected ignorance, though it decreases voluntariness, increases the accountability over
the resultant act.
2. Passion

Tel No. +63 (34) 434 9661 to 64 | Fax No. +63 (34) 433 5190
Distance Education
Passion or concupiscence are either tendencies towards desirable objects, or,

tendencies away from undesirable or harmful things. The former are called positive
emotions; and the latter, negative emotions. Positive emotions are love, desire, delight,
hope and bravery. Negative emotions are hate, horror, sadness, despair, fear and anger.
Passions are psychic responses. They are neither moral nor immoral.
Passion are either antecedent or consequent. Antecedent passions are those that precede
an act. It may happen that a person is emotionally aroused to perform an act. It predisposes
a person to act. Thus, love may induce one to make numerous and lengthy phone calls to his
sweetheart, or, to plot the murder of a rival.
Principle:
“Antecedent passions do not always destroy voluntariness, but they diminish accountability
for the resultant act.” Antecedent passions weaken the will of a person without, however,
completely obstructing his freedom. Thus, the so called “crimes of passion” are voluntary.
Consequent passions are those that are intentionally aroused and kept.
Consequent passions, therefore, are said to be voluntary in cause, the result of the will
playing the strings of emotions. Thus, a young man may deliberately arouse himself sexually
by reading pornographic magazines. He is morally accountable.
Principle:
“Consequent passions do not lessen voluntariness, but may even increase accountability.”
3. Fear
Fear is the disturbance of the mind of a person who is confronted by an impending
danger or harm to himself or loved ones. Distinction is made however between an act done
with fear and an act done out of fear. Examples of action done with fear are climbing a cliff,
flying an airplane through a storm, diving for pearls, arresting a notorious killer. Examples of
action done out of fear or because of fear are the child reads his book out of fear of the
mother, the employee volunteers to work overtime out of fear of being fired by the boss.
Principle:
1. Acts done with fear are voluntary. A person acting with fear is acting inspite of his
fear and is in full control of himself.
2. Acts done out of fear, however great, is simply voluntary, although it is also
conditionally voluntary.
3. Acts done because of intense fear or panic are involuntary. Panic completely obscure
the mind. It causes a person to lose complete control of himself.
4. Violence
Vilolence refers to any physical force exerted on a person by another free agent for
the purpose of compelling the said person to act against his will. Bodily torture,
maltreatment, isolation and mutilation- are examples of violence against person.
Principle:

Tel No. +63 (34) 434 9661 to 64 | Fax No. +63 (34) 433 5190
Distance Education
1. External actions, or commanded actions, performed by a person subjected to

violence, to which reasonable resistance has been offered, are involuntary and are
not accountable.
2. Elicited acts, or those done by the will alone, are not subject to violence and are
therefore voluntary.
5. Habits
Habit is defined as a lasting readiness and facility, born of frequently repeated acts,
for acting in a certain manner.
Principle:
Actions done by force of habit are voluntary in cause, unless a reasonable effort is
made to counteract the habitual inclination.
6. Emotion
Emotions are generally instinctive in origin. They become good or evil by the attitude
of the person manifesting them. Ethics deals with emotions as factors affecting human
motivation and behavior.
Task 2
How would you explain this saying: “Ignorance of the Law excuses no one”?

Task 3
Passions are driving force towards getting something what we desire. It has positive
and negative aspects to human action. It can help us achieve what we aim for. As the saying
goes on: “People with great passion can make the impossible happen.” However, passions
can also lead us to do evil actions. We sometimes hear people saying, “I was able to do that
bad thing because of my passion.”
In this sense, why are you not justified in doing wrong because of passions?
