By Luis K. Feliz Friedrick Nietzsche observes that “morality is the herd-instinct in the individual.” On the other hand, Alfred North Whitehead maintains that “what is morality in any given time or place? It is what the majority then and there happen to like, and immorality is what they dislike.” You should see these quotes as points of departure or teasers to goad your ideas. You don’t need to respond to the quotes above, simply express your opinion on the following questions: 1) What is morality? Where or how did you learn to be a moral human being? 2) Does the definition of morality change over time? 3) What is your definition of morality? Please share your thoughts by posting your comments below and don't forget to write your name when you post your response.

Art and Propaganda

By Luis Feliz The following quote is from the essay “Why I Write” by George Orwell: “What I have most wanted to do throughout the past ten years is to make political writing into an art. My starting point is always a feeling of partisanship, a sense of injustice. When I sit down to write a book, I do not say to myself, ‘I am going to produce a work of art.’ I write because there is some lie that I want to expose, some fact to which I want to draw attention, my initial concern is to get a hearing.” Is the function of literature “to get a hearing?” Please share your thoughts by posting your comments below and don't forget to write your name when you posts your response.
