What is preconventional morality?

The most primitive Kohlberg stage of moral development, in which the child interprets moral behaviour entirely in terms of personal gain and loss. It is divided into two levels: at Level 1 the child's moral behaviour is guided by the avoidance of punishment (I should not tell lies because I might get into trouble), and at Level 2 it is influenced also by the desire for gain (I should not tell lies because then my parents will reward me). Compare conventional morality, postconventional morality.

What are the teachings of Mencius?

Mencius' is a Latinisation of 'Meng K'o [Meng-tzu]. His dates are uncertain, perhaps from 372 until 298. He was thought of in China as Confucius's successor in transmitting the Tao. He accepted and defended many of Confucius's doctrines. What has come down to us from him are a collection of sayings and dialogues. In order to reconstruct his chief teachings, these have to be coordinated. Mencius thought that there is an inherent goodness in human nature. There are four inherent virtures in us, starting with jen [benevolence]. The other three are ceremony (in the sense of having an inward sense of good manners), the right, and wisdom. Mencious thinks that our moral inclinations are as natural to us as physical growth. They can be injured or stunted, but they ought to be tended properly. Like feeding the body, moral education is indispensable, but the process of growth is spontaneous. There's an analogy between health and longevity: if we want health and longevity, we will naturally choose what is best over giving in to inappropriate appetites. It's the same when it comes to choosing what is right over what is merely tempting or expedient; it's natural to choose what is right. Mencius rejected Mo Tzu's utilitarianism. He thought it essential to do something because it was benevolent or right--not because of a calculation concerning its possible beneficial or harmful consequences. For him, as for others from the Confucian school, the most important duty is the duty of serving one's family. This is grounded in the natural dictates of conscience. He also distinguished between the senses and thinking. Our senses don't think and are confused by externals. Since it is thinking, reflection, that gives us the right view of things, it's important to give it priority over our senses.

Is it illegal to snoop through someones computer files if given permission to use the computer for something else?

Snooping is not a crime, although it is frowned upon. There are exceptions to this though.

1. The file is in a lock box or other file protecting bin

2. The file is classified, or disclosed by the government.

3. You sign a contract stating specifically that you will not view anything other than what you sign for.

4. It is legally protected and, if, or patented with viewing rights reserved.

My guess is that you were just asking if snooping on something personal and not in anyway. i.e an online diary. No that is not illegal, but is not recommended if you ever want to get permission to use the computer again.

Premarital sex is immoral?

Morality is a personal choice defined by the individual...

Hi, as another point of view obviously it's your opinion. I respect people who decide to wait until marriage, but I absolutley DO NOT respect people who tell me sex before marriage is immoral. It's a personal choice and no one has the right to tell you not to do it or that it is wrong. Plus, sex is fun...dont be a frigid. Joking, joking. But don't let people alter your descision unless it's something you want.
