I think our ethical radar is important to us because it shows us what is right and what is wrong.I think reason and emotion helps with the ethical radar, because we can feel if something it wrong or right. So some people would see killing the lions as something right and some people would see it as wrong. But some people feel different about the subject based on there emotions.I think it can always be helpful to provide a reason why something is wrong because it could convince others.

To be ethical, it is to do good things. To be unethical, it is to do bad things, like cheating. The way how we have been raised and taught since we were young guides our 'ethical radar'. I believe that it is necessary to support an ethical position with reason insted of just saying "it feels wrong". People should interact with others and share their thoughts together on many things so they all could come up with the answer to the question: Is it ethical or not?

its by the act of knowing or sencing without the use of rational processes. A sence of something not evident. We know things through intuitions becuase of feelings, sensations, etc. It is necessary if you got a great reason but most of the times you just feel that something is wrong, its hard to say.

What guides our ethical radar is the feeling of right and wrong. Like when you hear something and you feel that something's wrong with it then that triggers your ethical radar. The most reliable way of knowing to help us make a moral decision is seeing for yourself. You cannot listen to what someone says or read what someone wrote because there might be some form of exaggeration or the writer might be bias. So basically you should see for yourself and ask yourself for making a moral decision. It is necessary to support your ethical position with a reason to make the person youre having a conversation with understand where youre coming from. If you have a good reason they might agree with you and see that you have a point and support your reason.

The thing that guides our ethical radar is the morality of making a decision between right and wrong. He reliable aspect to make a moral decision is reason. In my perspective everything happenes for a reason, so in your decisions without a reason u cant prove whether you decision is right or wrong. It's very important to support an ethical position with a reason because it provides the aspact of supporting it. Killing lions isn't a right decision, but people people tend to say they're savage and we need to kill them. Also there is no sucj thing as "it feels wrong" basically it feels wrong because there is a reason why this particular thing is wrong.

/WoKs: Intuition, ethics, reason, emotion
KQs: What guides our 'ethical radar'? Which way of knowing is the most reliable in helping us to make a moral decision? Is it necessary to support an ethical position with reason, or is it enough to say 'it feels wrong'?
Our ethics and how people look at us guides our ethical radar. The most reliable way of knowing that helps us make a moral decision in my point of view is intuition. That is because when you do something wrong you can feel it's wrong without even reasoning it. Sometimes you really need to add reason to your intuition because when you want to teach someone that it's wrong he won't budge when you tell him it feels that way.

I think what guides our ethical radar is with how our parents raised us and with the people you walk with. I think the best way to make a moral decision is to have an evidence that what you are doing is correct. I think you must support your ethical position with reasons because not all of the people has the same feelings.

From my point of view, pure intution is the factor that guides our "ethical radar". I think that emotion is a much more reliable way of knowing when it comes to helping us make a moral decision then intution. It is absolutely necessary to support your point of view and not simply state that something is wrong because by plainly refusing to agree with a point of view without saying any reason you might give the person your talking to a bad impression about yourself.

what guides our ethical radar is basically our morals and how do we treat others (not in the way of showing people that we care about the poor and so in front of people only). i would go with intuition as the most reliable way of knowing in helping us to make a moral decision. in some cases, supporting an ethical position with reason wouldn't be necessary, if those cases are like helping a man in need while you can or helping out a senior with his/her groceries to her car. that does not need reason its pure logic. but in most cases you need to give reason instead of saying " it feels wrong" because what if the guy with you does not understand and never will, you will have to live with the fact that you had the chance to explain the situation and change his life perspective on what's wrong and you didn't.

Ethical radar is important because it shows what is the right path or the right thing. I see the main reason for ethical rad is emotion. Some of the people will see killing animals a normal thing and others don't. People feel differently depending on their emotions. Showing a reason for something will prove the reason you would want to show the people and that is necessary.

By the act of knowing or sencing without the use of rational processes. A sence it a something that we cant see or touch. We know things through intuitions becuase of what we feel if this choice is good or not.. It is necessary if you got a great reason but when you feel something wrong which you don't have a experience it is hard to say it is wrong because it is your personal view.

The ethical radar is very important to me and to the whole world every person in this world must have ethical radar. It no ethical radar found in this world be well be in danger. People feel and think in different ways. People feel different about different things. Ethical radar tells the person if something is wrong or right. People must explains their resoans to narraow down the conflicts. And the eithcal radar will in a good way.
