Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Philosophy - Practical (Ethics, Aesthetics, Culture, Nature, Right, ...), grade: 1,0, Humboldt-University of Berlin, language: English, abstract: This paper offers a critique of Susan Wolfs thesis that it is not desirable to be as morally good as possible. I will mainly focus on two objections that are strongly connected with each other. The first one being the notion of free will, that is, that one can only be a moral saint by choice and out of one¿s own free will. The secound one is the notion that a moral saint will affect their surroundings in a way that will make up for the possible downsides of moral saintliness.
