Ethics: Your Personal Rights

I used to pass this list of eleven rights out whenever I was discussing or teaching ethics. Dr Foreward's Personal Bill of Rights is simply excellent advise whenever you are dealing with groups of people or individual persons. Of course, turn about is fair play, and what's good for the gander is good for the goose. If you have these rights, other people have these rights also.

Remember these concepts and rights when applying with ethics.

Disclaimer: I got this list way back in the 1980's when they were being distributed free by Dr Foreward. The presence of this list on this website is simply a public service.
