Write a 500-600 word explanation of the following passage from Kant’s GMM [all other parameters and rubrics are the same as for the first writing assignment]:
“Thus a good will seems to constitute the indispensable condition of being even worthy of happiness.” (Groundwork, First Section)
In constructing your answer make sure that you (a) contextualize your response in Kant’s theory as a deontologic (not consequentialist) moral theory, (b) discuss what it would mean for a person to have a good will, and (c) why he explains the relation between having a good will and happiness as he does. (You are not limited to these things necessarily, but they are essential.)
