Overview

The book is an interesting humorous philosophical play for those who are simply curious about moral philosophy, and those who are just fans of the famous television show in the mid-1990s Father Ted . The book provides a humorous yet accurate guide to some well-known philosophical arguments regarding the source and nature of morality, focusing in particular on Plato's 'Euthyphro' dialogue. The book is suitable for those with no prior knowledge of analytic philosophy and for adoption by instructors of introductory moral philosophy courses. In act one, Plato's Euthyphro dilemma is described, and some initial reactions to the dilemma are explored. Act two continues the evaluation of different responses to the dilemma. Act three focuses on the description and evaluation of some philosophical arguments concerning the ancient debate about whether morality is objective, and independent of one's interests and desires, or whether it is subjective, i.e. a matter of personal opinion, or perhaps relative to the culture and time that one happens to live in.
