| So, for example, a deontologist such as Immanuel Kant might say that lying is always morally wrong, even when it results in a greater good. |
|
| Patient-centered deontologists handle differently other stock examples of the agent-centered deontologist. |
|
| The deontologist might attempt to back this assertion by relying upon the separateness of persons. |
|
| If so, the deontologist may, by reference to the intrinsic value of such species, be hesitant to grant permission. |
|
| Thus a deontologist calls people good if they have charity, but calls conduct right if it is neither intrinsically wrong nor disproportionate. |
|
| One need not be a deontologist in order to at least raise some issues with this approach. |
|
| So, for an absolute deontologist, instructions about what to do in the face of uncertainty can only be pragmatic. |
|
| As a deontologist would put it, these are moral causes that speak to us directly. |
|
| While Belaid, according to the standard definition of utilitarianism, is a utilitarian, the mayor appears to be a deontologist. |
|
| However, a deontologist may also strongly consider natural consequences of actions. |
|
| Or a deontologist can be an expressivist, a constructivist, a transcendentalist, a conventionalist, or a Divine command theorist regarding the nature of morality. |
|
| However, they hold that the advantage of consequentialism over deontologist systems is that it proposes an object to be attained. |
|
| Deontologist are concerned with motive, not outcome, and judge an action according to whether or not it is the right thing to do. |
