The Ethical Principles Underlying Abortion, Lewis Dominic Thill

Bachelors’ Theses

At the present day one quite often hears a discussion of birth-control. And it is interesting to note how varied and shallow are the ethical opinions put forth by those in favor of it. The advocates of abortion seem to have but the vaguest notion of the Natural Law, forgetting that morality is not made in its fundamental principles by personal whim or religious creed, but by the requirements of Divine Order, which must forever prevail. Abortion is practiced in some degree by the laity without the intervention of a physician. Very often, however, it is prescribed by medical men …

Craniotomy And Abortion Are Moral And Social Evils, Alvin Ralph Kutschera

Bachelors’ Theses

An artificial division of arguments has "been essayed in this thesis for two external reasons: physicians and physicians. The physician performing craniotomy adopts the operation as the last resort in a "bad case, when death is imminent whereas the abortionist operates for many and sundry reasons,some good and many bad, base, and criminal. The two types of operators being entirely different, the operations they perform have been kept apart, tho craniotomy and direct abortion are direct attacks upon the life of the fetus, and an argument against one is a lance in the side of the other.

Rendt's Radical Good And The Banality Of Evil: Echoes Of Scholem And Jaspers In Margarethe Von Trotta's Hannah Arendt, Babette Babich

Articles and Chapters in Academic Book Collections

Margarethe von Trotta's 2012 film Hannah Arendt suggests that for Arendt the signal problem with Adolf Eichmann had to do with a lack of thinking (the same problem Martin Heidegger diagnoses repeatedly in his book What is Called Thinking). For Heidegger, we are "still" not thinking. For Arendt, what is characteristic of Eichmann is that he does not think, meaning that he does not think as Aristotle defines thinking, namely as characteristic of the human qua human, here conceiving thinking as an inherently philosophical project that is more than practical but always contemplative (i.e., thinking about thinking). Is Eichmann …
