What priority do you place on your selection above? High Medium Low
My choice is in white. Again, nothing about my answer here took any soul searching. I believe in virtue ethics because I believe we have a purpose. This is what I was taught by my parents at home and the Nuns at school from an early age and I agree. A half century life experience has only led me to agree more strongly.
Well, we both chose the same answers for the first two questions, but I might have given #1 a Medium priority rather than High.
