Putting Off A Chore

Book of the Week

This is a very readable and practical book that will help your thinking. 

Philosophy for Everyday Life

By Trevor Curnow

For example, “Chapter 7 – I Have My Principles”, makes a distinction between tastes and principles.

Taste

If one prefers to drink organic fair-trade coffee and another prefers to drink the cheapest brand, that may simply be a matter of taste.  

Principle

But if one drinks organic fair-trade coffee on principle and would not drink the other brand on principle, that becomes much more than taste. Because when one acts on principle, than logically, they need to believe that everyone should do the same.  

Application

It is easier to get along with people when we have differences based upon tastes. It gets harder to do so when we feel those differences are based upon principles. So, are our differences really based on principles or are they merely differences in taste.

Movie of the Week
