| Â | Original Sin: A Disputation |
 | | Belief in original sin leads to pessimism: it results in a resigned fatalism about changing those sinful structures that actually can be changed but which go unchallenged because they are all too lazily attributed to the effects of original sin, which by definition is a given and cannot be changed. | | | John Henry Newman, for one, always insisted that original sin is the only way believers can make sense of the world when they contrast that world to their faith in God. | | | To the extent this cultural perception is accurate, it must rest on what is the most illogical and contradictory aspect of the doctrine of original sin, at least as it is normally heard in the pew: that we are morally culpable for possessing instincts which we cannot help possessing. |

| Â | John Rawls "Justice as Fairness" |
| | Critical to the original position is the notion of abstraction, the veil of ignorance, and recalling that the original position itself is of a representational nature. | | | The second problem Rawls addresses is the problem of the concept of the individual that the original position implies, namely the idea that it is possible for an individual to abstract himself from all social constraints and to view society in a totally disconnected and abstract manner. | | | Rawls addresses this by asserting that the original position is to be used as a representation and that within it the parties will adopt just opinions which can then be carried back from the original position as valid judgements of our social institutions. |

| | The original position is a hypothetical initial situation in which the parties, as representatives of citizens in general, choose the principles of justice that will guide the basic social structure. | | | I take the original position to be a "device of representation" and the parties in the original position as hypothetical representatives who, behind the veil of ignorance, can come to some decision on the principles of justice that will guide society. | | | Hence, individuals in the original position are guided by their own choices to what is best for themselves and not by what ends or goods are best for a community. |

| Â | 20th WCP: Rawlsian Affirmative Action: Compensatory Justice as Seen from the Original Position |
| | Turning to Rawls' method, to adopt the original position is to place oneself behind a "veil of ignorance": it is to discount one's particular needs, interests, abilities, gender, race, religion, and socioeconomic status- in short, personal characteristics that are not shared by all others. | | | Thus, in selecting distributive principles from the original position, one is not allowed to employ considerations the recognition of which would tend to make one partial towards those who share some or all of one's personal characteristics. | | | It seems to me that the principles selected in the original position are not be violated unless it can shown that their suspension is entailed by the only effective means of redressing injustice, which, as will be demonstrated, is not the case. |
