Topic: If a goal is worthy, then ay means taken to attain it is justifiable
According to the title statement 。If a goal is worthy, then any means taken to attain it is justifiable . Although the idealist way is to achieve the noblest goal through the noblest means , in reality we sometimes have to resort to low means in order to attain high goals .
Theoretically, the means taken should be consistent with the ends in view .In fact, the great happiness of life is to work hard for the goal and at last attain it .But looking around ourselves, we will easily find that there so many people without goal of life in our society, in other words, they don't know what they require, why they live for ,and who they are , that it is commonly to see the men who random on the road all day even some may become beggar . Among those people .there is a particular group in our society who attract extremely attention from all fields of society.As the chairman of china ---hujintao said, the problem of youth in our society is against over all other problems ; Solving the problem of youth is just solving the biggest problem of society. Therefore ,we should cherish our goals insist on it ,and work hard for it no matter what a difficult problem it is, we should try our best to attain it by all means
However in order to restore peace and social order individual states or the international community has repeatedly used force in history . Indeed whether certain means is justifiable in reading the goal must be determined on a case-by-case basis, by weighing the benefits of attaining the goal against the costs, or harm that might accrue along the way ,There is no inadequate examples in human history on such case whether in China , America or other countries in the world. French emperor, Bonaparte Napoleon, is the typical figure who just for his political goal, don't care the people whether living a bad life in his country. To the important, he take the flag of serving the peace of world. we all know that each moment in history is a fleeting time , but people in his country even in the world won't forget him ' for the hard life they lived
we should be alert to the possibility that individuals organizations or governments tend to plead a worthy goal in excuse of their contemptible means and selfish interests. simply put , on a societal level we determine the worthiness of our goals in much the same way--by weighing competing interests For instance, any thoughtful person would agree that reducing air and water pollution is a worthy societal goal; dean air and water reduce the burden on life for everyone in society Yet to attain this goal would be justified in forcing entire industries out of business thereby ruing the risk of economic paralysis and widespread unemployment. at the same time The same to the individual goals who think obeying environmental protection laws that call for clean air costs industry money that could otherwise be realized as profit
In sum up the speaker begs the question, The worthiness of any goal should be determined cautiously whether it be personal or societal by weighing the benefits of achieving the goal for using low means in order to attain high goals against its coasts -- - to us as well as others
