LYING, CHEATING, STEALING, IS IT RIGHT?

Bias on the morality view in our current society, this three factors (lying, cheating, and stealing) are view as negative actions. This is an ethical dilemma because it is a choice that a person has to make, weather he does what it please him or does he comfort to society. Speaking as a Post Modernism, more specifically base on Friederich Nietzsche concept of “I”, I believe that if these factors are suitable for the person, then it is the right path for him. According to Nietzsche, people are responsible for their own actions; we make our own decision because we decide how we are going to live our live. No one tell us hoe live, what decision to make. Regardless of the kind of the decision we made, we are always responsible for the consequences. Lying, cheating, and stealing always bring negative consequence to a person that perform them, but if a person believes that these actions will bring more benefits to him, that it is perfect fir him, then according to his morality he is doing the right thing. But there is also the case for a person who believes that these actions are bad. In their morality, these actions are repulsive. Only good deeds will bring benefits for that person. It all depends on the person weather this actions are right or wrong.

- Fausto (Post-Modernism)
