ISSUE212 - "If a goal is worthy, then any means taken to attain it is justifiable."
WORDS: 650+ TIME: 02:00:00 DATE: 2008-2-22 14:26:00
I do not agree with that author that any means to achieve the goal is justifiable if this is a worthy goal. As the definition of worth and justifiable varies from one person to another, that might led to a disorder if each would take any means that he(he or she) thought worthy to attain a target. In addition, in a society like nowadays, we are calling for reach (reaching) our termination by some legal and rational means.
To begin (with), the first problem with this issue is what is worthy differentiates by each people's understanding. Different people have varied educational and social backgrounds, regional belief and value system to teach them what the things they are willing to pursue are. Among them, the social status and regional belief affect this definition of what is worthy most. The first point is, that for a person living in the upper class in a society, he/she are (is) so eager in need of reputation satisfactory, that would lead to them to take well-populated by publics for granted.(这句话是什么意思?) Meanwhile, people who live in the lowest level of the society, pursuit of escaping from hungry and thirsty, diseases and epidemics are of the first importance, which makes them to regard it as a worthwhile thing to do. That is a shape contrast of the definition between people in the different society status. The other point is regional belief; we can clearly figure the destructive results of "human bomb" made by some regional parties in East-Middle. For them, devoting themselves for the regional instruction takes the prime priority. But for most of us, who do not have that regional belief, would not consider in this kind of devotion as a worth thing.
Yet another problem with this issue is that the understanding of justifiable. Even one think something worth doing to attain a goal, do(does) that mean that anything, including some violation of moral regulations and laws, is adoptive? Before we arrive at a conclusion, we should be ready to make our definition of justifiable clear. Thus what is justifiable? In my opinion, something justifiable means doing something is right reasonable(这句感觉有语病), but also shows the justice of these actions, having the same bending to each part of the whole community. If any misunderstand of the definition occurs, that would lead to trouble. For instance, Saddam, in order to meet his desire of authority, invaded Kuwait in 1990, which interrupted the international order and brought about devastating damage to the people in Kuwait. Can his action be regarded as justifiable? No, of course is not. If so, the world nowadays may be immersed in a sea of wars. Because human are born with ever-increasing desire of controlling more, if invasion based on the desire of control, (这个例子觉得不恰当,他本身的目的就是不worthy的,所以方法怎样结果都不是好的,如果这个例子放在第一段到还可以,但是在第二段,已经抛开目的谈方法了不如说个目的正确但方法不对的,比如人类想发展社会却又造成污染之类。) is justifiable, each would pursuit for the meet of his/her desire by the means of wars. Therefore, not only is justifiable things something showing its justice for society, but also something regulate people's behaviors, at least not to violate the laws.
Surely, I reach a negative answer to the question arose in the beginning of the passage before. But does that mean we, if wanting to attain a goal, cannot do anything we thought is right? They answer again is no.
In the course of reaching goals, we often have more than one path to the termination, among which we should choose the most justifiable one. We might do something within the allowance of moral regulations and laws as well as to resort for some help (to没记错的话求助于是这个词组) the government. There might be some cases, for a newly-establishing company, it might apply for a decreased tax rather than escaping taxes privately. Two of means would help to attain to the same goal, but the latter one is not justifiable, which should be the last choice of people. Indeed, the society we lived in is calling for justice. With the premise that each member in our society act in a reasonable, rational and justifiable way, we would welcome a better society.
全文用了很多第一人称,感觉有些主观,很多地方可以尝试换一下的,显得更客观可信些。说的不好的莫见怪哦。
