7. Utilitarianism uses the idea of "pleasure = good." How would you define pleasure and is your definition of "Good"equivalent or different from "pleasure."

Answer with Explanation:

I would define "pleasure" differently from "good." For me, "pleasure" is something that benefits a person, but it doesn't necessarily mean that it's good.

For example, killing another person may be a pleasure for somebody but the act is "not good." Another example is walking a long distance to get to school. This is tiring thus, it is not considered a pleasure for the person. Nevertheless, the action is "good" because the person is trying to walk long distance in order to get educated in school.

So, pleasure is not an equivalent of good.
