Yay Only my third BOS sighting ever :)

I was sitting on your left...umm...I'm kind of difficult to describe because I'm fairly normal/boring looking. Brown short hair. A little shorter height-wise than average. Wearing a jumper and jeans.

Good luck with your essay writing.

Help me choose a topic for mine. :)
I'd either do the first or the last, but that's because i know next to nothing about the others.

is moral good? I know someone who's doing moral and happiness and say they overlap a lot so I don't know if it's worth doing it later.




re ben: it better not be :\

In a lot of the texts (like aristotle's and the encyc) they use the phrase 'pleasure is intrinsically good' - I am taking that as a synonym for happiness. That shouldn't be a problem right. I'm pretty sure that's how they mean it but i don't know whether i need to put a qualifying phrase about it in my essay

???

in this context it is confusing, because often pleasure, enjoyment, happiness are all used interchangeably. Other times it's important to distinguish between them. But when you're using old texts the meaning of the words has been altered slightly (so aristotle mightbe using it in the same way as happiness... and then the author's just used his word for it)

Yes I heard they overlap. As far as Moral is concerned, I'd definitely recommend it. Oh and I think i'll do the question on motives.
