The Morality of Kindness
What is true kindness? Is an act kind, if it also serves you? Are you born with kindness or is it something you learn? This week Benz and Tef grapple with kindness, morality and tough love. They start by discussing how to judge the moral virtue of an action through the lenses of consequentialism, deontology and virtue ethics. The conversation then addresses how much of kindness arises in humans naturally and to what extent it is a learnt behaviour. The episode ends with a tricky dilemma which tests the boundaries of your kindness. Join us on Youtube for full video episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@ThinkTwiceYoutube
