George Washington's Rules for Civility--S3.E3

Ethics and Etiquette ·

2021/02/19

Since Monday was President’s Day, a day to honor the birthdays of Presidents Washington and Lincoln, we wanted to talk about a list entitled “George Washington’s 110 Rules for Civility.” It’s based on a set of rules composed by French Jesuits in 1595 which would then form the basis of a young man’s character education in the 18th century. Although some seem stuffy and funny by today’s standards, most of the rules are still amazingly applicable as a modern code of personal conduct. We discuss

Ethics and Etiquette is a thought-provoking discussion about everyday dilemmas. This week, we’re talking about panhandling. You know, the folks at the intersection or outside the mall with cardboard signs that say “Homeless and hungry. Please help. Bless you.” This is something we’re conflicted about. On one hand, charity compels us to help others less fortunate. On the other hand, we wonder if we’re enabling irresponsible behavior or worse, being duped or played. Links mentioned in this
