The Categorical Imperative
One approach to finding the correct answer to every moral question is to use the categorical imperative. This is a principle that was formulated by Immanuel Kant, and it states that we should only act according to that maxim by which we can at the same time will that it should become a universal law.
In other words, we should only act in a way that we would be willing for everyone else to act in the same way. This principle can be used to rule out a number of different immoral actions. For example, we would not be willing for everyone to steal, so stealing is immoral.
The Golden Rule
Another approach to finding the correct answer to every moral question is to use the golden rule. This is a principle that is found in many different religions and cultures, and it states that we should treat others the way we want to be treated.
The golden rule is a simple but powerful principle that can be used to guide our behavior in a wide range of situations. For example, we would not want to be lied to, so we should not lie to others.
The Veil of Ignorance
A third approach to finding the correct answer to every moral question is to use the veil of ignorance. This is a thought experiment that was developed by John Rawls, and it asks us to imagine that we are choosing the principles of a just society from behind a veil of ignorance.
In other words, we do not know our own social status, our race, our gender, or our economic circumstances. This thought experiment can help us to identify principles that are fair and just for everyone, regardless of their circumstances.
There is no one definitive answer to the question of what is the correct answer to every moral question. However, the approaches that have been discussed in this article can help us to make more informed and ethical decisions. By using the categorical imperative, the golden rule, and the veil of ignorance, we can work towards creating a more just and equitable world.
