“Acting is morally good when the choices of freedom are in conformity with man’s true good and thus express the voluntary ordering of the person towards our ultimate end: God himself.”
The goal in which an action is done or accomplished is its end. The end of Human Acts means the purpose or goal on why we did a certain actions. It is said that every action of a man that he thinks has a purpose or goal that he wants to achieve at the end. Every human action has its own purpose. Human Actions is when we used the Intellect will that God gave us so the intellect must suggest an action for the will to act upon before it can execute it. There is a distinction between the end of the action and the end of the doer.
Scholars regularly defined ethics as "Moral Philosophy". In relation with traditional scholastic definition of ethics whose definition is that Morality is the philosophical knowledge that lead or guides freely given human actions that are consistent with ultimate principles discovered by human beings independently emphasizes on using human reason to determine universally applicable morality or ethics. However, Human reason has a limitation therefore there is need of standard that we need to follow.
These definitions of ethics all directs to the subject’s commitment on human behavior and their morality in mind and body. It concentrates on the morality of human action. Nevertheless, it is important that we differentiate or seperates first the morality and their actions. The goal or purpose of an action is the motivation behind it. Some human action can serve as a wide range of purposes, both can be for a immediate and over a long run. Direct Voluntarily is when the actor intends to do something for himself to be able to achieve his end, The goal that a person had in mind when acting is the outcome of a human activity that execute the act is called the goal.. People can perform an act with just one purpose or many purposes at once.
