Question 1: First, what do you understand ‘morality to be, broadly speaking? In other words, what do you mean when you refer to something as, say, ‘ right,' ‘wrong,' ‘good,' ‘evil,' ‘just,' ‘unjust,' ‘fair,' ‘unfair,' ‘harmful,' ‘offensive,' ‘autonomy,' ‘community,' ‘obligation, ‘my rights,' ‘liberty,' ‘oppression,' etc., and what does your definition of such terms reveal about your orientation towards life? Similarly, how did you come to arrive at this position, and what, if any, ethical principles ground your understanding?

Question 2: Secondly, is your moral philosophy susceptible to any sort of criticism? For instance, does it suffer from any inconsistencies, or is it based on any particular prejudices or unfounded biases? How would you respond to such criticism?

Question 3: Lastly, what does your moral philosophy look like when put into practice? In other words, as you live your life day-to-day, how does (or could) your personal interpretation of liberty reveal itself in the choices you make and the actions you undertake? Please be specific by describing a concrete situation, including how you evaluated (or would evaluate) the circumstances; how those ethical judgments led you to act; and how you justified those actions at the time versus whether or not you still find them to be justifiable. What might such reflection suggest about the significance of possessing a sense of liberty in your life?
