No. Discrimination is not always wrong, according to teleological normative ethical theories and deontological theories. Teleological normative theories argue that the consequences of an action rather than the moral obligations help determine what is good. Appeal to human nature and personal experiences can also be used in determining what is good. Therefore, discrimination based on what is useful rather than what is right is not always bad, as shown by the theory. The theorists also argue that experience rather than reason is essential in determining what is good in society.
Deontological
theories also show that discrimination is not bad based on what is right than
what is good. According to the deontological theorists, when the discrimination is based on moral duties rather than
moral value, it is not considered bad.
The central point of concern for the deontological theorists is based on reason,
moral sense and intuition to reveal all actions that are considered right.
