Not long ago, the movie "I Am Not a Medicine God" swept the Internet.
Among them, the struggles of the little people make people feel sad, and the difference between morality and law has triggered countless people's discussions.
Many people wonder what choices are more appropriate to make when law and morality collide.
In the movie, in order to let more people survive, the protagonist Cheng Yong chose to continue to smuggle "Glenin" and was eventually arrested and imprisoned.
Is he a good guy? Saved many lives!
Is he a bad guy? Smuggling imitation "Glenin", infringing on the intellectual property rights of pharmaceutical companies, violating the law, and finally being punished by the law!
It may be ridiculous to say that a person is defined as a bad person and a good person on two different levels of law and morality, but it really happens in the movie, even in reality, and eventually causes countless people to sigh.
However, I don't want to lament Cheng Yong's tragedy here, but I want to use this film to elicit a sentence that the skeptical scholar Carneyard said - nothing in this world is absolutely correct!
Russell denies that skepticism is a doctrine, but in reality any doctrine that can be passed down to the present day has some value.
Carneade's words tell us not to look at a person in a worldly way of right and wrong.
For the good you see is not necessarily the work of a good man, and the evil you see is not necessarily the work of an evil man!
Carneade was a famous greek philosopher who taught openly in Rome.
On the first day of his lecture, Carneade gave a lecture to the Roman students about justice and morality in the doctrines of Aristotle and Plato.
But this is not to say that Carneades fully endorses justice and morality in the doctrines of Aristotle and Plato, for a few days later, in the course of his lecture, Carneade refuted what he had said in his first lecture on justice and morality.
By teaching and refuting the doctrines of Aristotle and Plato twice about justice and morality, Carneade told the students that right and wrong are not inevitable.
If you want to correctly look at what happens around you, you must have a pair of eyes that are good at discovery, distinguish the real good and evil through the current, local and even current situations, and make the correct choices that you recognize.
