In each discussion forum,
the object is to increase understanding of many different ethical views. Keep in
mind the Principle of Charity. We have a responsibility to be open to new ideas about
ethics here, just as you each have a responsibility to be open to your patients’
views. This openness includes the new theories introduced each week and the
participants’ views expressed in the forum. Seek to understand a view or concept
before criticizing it. If your understanding is incomplete, ask respectful
questions targeted at the ideas, and not the person expressing them. Answer
questions honestly and with respect.  We also have a responsibility to express
our own views in such a way that invites discussion.  Avoid stereotypes and
labelling groups or people, discussing ideas respectfully without use of
irrelevant information about the arguer.  Avoidance of the ad hominem fallacy is
crucial to ethical discussion.  This does not mean that disagreement is off
limits! Disagreements are best made with support and respectful discourse and
questioning. Going back to your own Initial Post (IP) and addressing questions
is a great way to show respect for others who have asked questions in their
Response post (RP) to your IP.
