Sažetak
Current discussions in moral philosophy show that terms of moral discourse
were taken from the context of their origin. Different concepts
of moral philosophy testify that and there is a need to start again with
understanding of the complex image of moral traditions. Thus, A. MacIntyre
started with this premise in his study After Virtue and showed
how painful and unusual deformations of the current moral conceptions
are. In his study he started from the emotivistic moral theory in order to
show the absurd of such kind of moral discourse. Using A. MayIntyre’s
prism in this paper we tried to show that complex image and its deformation
and introduce speech about virtues and their meaning, the same as
the author of the study After Virtue did. That is certainly a key answer of
the Christian moral philosophy to such moral conception which is present
in our modern culture. Structure of a human moral activity cannot
be based only on emotivistic statements which aspire to absoluteness
of the norm but they should be put under radical critics in confronting
with crucial issues of anthropology, philosophy and theology.
