Reflection 11 Impact on modern education

Happiness-an impact on happiness concerning virtue states that you can have a fun and good times in the world, but if you are not virtuous there is not sufficient quality of happiness. You may be the wealthiest, prettiest, hi-class, and are successful in education, career, etc it is still not a full view of happiness. In reality most famous folks that has lump sums of money are the most miserable, unhappy, and mistreated people believe it or not. So in saying being various, you can be poor but long as you’re an honest person with a warm-heart that carries much love within you will be blessed and live a good life. The key to being virtuous and ensure happiness is wisdom, we would set guidelines, goals as to where we want to go in life without doing this it is not virtuous. The modern views of happiness we think we are happy by how we feel about a certain situation etc. long as you have ample amounts of pleasure it can make you happy even when you are lacking moral virtue. The theory to happiness is utilitarianism with the philosophers input of John Stwart, Mill and Jeremy Bentham. As far as Mill we know we are happy using the Utilitarian Calculus and Bentham the Principle of Utility. Now with regards to Socratic elenchus it shows us that we are confused about our moral beliefs. We reason everything but we also believe that God did everything. Once we find out the real answer or a sufficient answer we then sit back and question god. Elenchus displays inconsistencies among beliefs, and this then makes it difficult to understand how reasoning could lead to moral knowledge or a correct answer. I feel isn’t actually any specific correct answer when it comes down to reasoning moral beliefs. Every individual is entitled to their opinion and belief freely! No one is incorrect of whatever their belief may be. We all have our own personal feelings and moral beliefs towards anyone and everything in life and we will not get the actual truth until we experience these paradigms ourselves.
