Oakland Community College Individual Critical Thinking Discussion
I need an explanation for this Philosophy question to help me study.
desicpsin and reply
Consider the following argument that is found in Chapter 3:
Whenever you can, you act so as to satisfy your desires.
Acting to satisfy your desires is acting selfishly.
Therefore, whenever you can, you act selfishly
What is/are the problem(s) with this argument? Or, is it good as is? (Hint: You may appeal to Ch. 3 in M&P to develop your answer. This was not directly covered in the video for Ch. 3.)
