My ethical dilemma is whether or not I should study in ethics.
I see ethics as the evil twin to rationality and logic, which really hurts me personally. Ever since the idea of ethos, pathos, and logos in writing classes, we know that emotions are the hardest hitting. When the emotions come flooding in, we tend to do what we feel is right through some sort of self-justification, even if those justifications are not rational. This plays a huge role in why it is so difficult to explain to others why your moral position is "right". Whether it be deontological ethics, utilitarianism, or some other moral code, we always find ourselves in tough situations.
I do believe everything tends to have a rational solution, but whether or not we take it is a whole different choice. Ethics lets people point fingers too easily, which I guess, goes against my own ethics. Quite ironic if you ask me.
