I thought it would be interesting to see the depth of knowledge here on mystic board.

There are many schools of philosophy I wonder if people would like to describe what school of philosophy they identify with and why?

I identify with the school of ethics primarily because of the job i do.  Plato tried very hard to look at the differences between right and wrong and morality.  Where ethics becomes difficult and sticky is when you have to sacrifice the one person for the greater good.

Problem being, ethics itself is quite subjective and therefore subject to controversy. What's ethical today may not be ethical tomorrow. Take the case of euthanasia. For the side arguing in favor, killing is probably the most ethical act, considering various factors such as pain etc. For others, the exact opposite seems to be ethical.

As one can see, there has to be an objective basis to determine what we mean by ethics, otherwise, all the diametrically opposing views must be considered as part of ethics. And that would lead to chaos.

I don't know anything about the job you do, but found the last line a little curious. Mind sharing?

hmm well this is going to be an intresting revelation for some.

You see how does god really speak who does he have favour for and how does he know all.

well not one to know of what it is like to have all knowing knowledge and such but really go is jesus christ, my spirit guide, my walk in etc.

When you know what it is like to see a god at a minium of their strength you begin to understand what god maby holding back for this revelation is more like a bigger brother that sees the whole picture and also the picture og your life and the billions of possible interactions.

A person that wants to accept and learn and teach and revel.

I work for the healthboard here in the UK.

Some drugs are very expensive so are not on the approved list of medications.  This means that the healthboard can treat more of the cheaper illnesses much to the detriment to those who need expensive treatments to remain alive or improve their quality of life.  This is justified by the healing of many within the finite amount of resources available hence sacrificing the one.  This is an ethical problem for staff.
