| dc.description.abstract | Love is the cardinal virtue, commendably exemplified in the life and thought of Sir John Templeton. But love is not the only virtue, or duty. Neither in deontological ethics nor in utilitarianism is altruism the pivotal principle. Altruism needs complementing with justice. An inclusive ethics argues that what the impoverished, the poor, the downtrodden are entitled to is not so much charity as recognition of their human rights. Waiting for the philanthropic wealthy to fix the ever-increasing inequities between the rich and the poor looks in the wrong direction for a solution to the most pressing moral issue on the world agenda. | |
