Part 1 - empirical study of our community Flashcards
What does Bradley conclude is the meaning of human existence?
The self realisation that we are an individual within the community
How is self realisation achieved?
Through empirical observation - empirically studying family and community
What does adopting the values of the community do to the moral agent?
Places them in the concentrate scientific universe because everything we learn and then do is based on the empirical study of the world around us.
How should we satisfy our ‘self’?
By fulfilling the role that our empirical observations would indicate is our ideal role in that community.
What should we do once we find our individual role in society?
It is our duty to then perform this function with hard work and obedience
What does following this process do?
Eradicate our sense of isolation and we become our true selves as a functioning and useful member of the community.
