The contribution of teaching logic to ethical decision making

Original language description

Everyone makes many important decisions in his or her life and these decisions are the result of his or her thinking. However, in many critical situations he or she cannot find a solution. The paper deals with the importance of teaching logic in mathematics for the man to be able to make ethically correct decisions. The mathematical formalism can simplify thinking and thus achieve the proper conclusion. Teaching logic can help a man learn the basic rules of logical reasoning. Mathematics is essentially a universal language of physics and technology but also it can be a language of communication in the ethics. The unambiguity of mathematics could be used to solve many controversial ethical issues in the application of new scientific knowledge.
