Question

Rody knows that if he drinks liquor, he will drink to excess, and will use profane language, which will scandalize those that hear it. He declares, and truly enough, that he hates intemperance, and that he fears the evils of profanity and scandal. Nevertheless, he drinks liquor, and the expected result happens.
Evaluate Rody’s responsibility of his acts.

Answer 1

Answer:

Rody is responsible for his acts.

Explanation:

Rody is responsible for his acts. He knows the consequences of drinking, but he does it anyway. He might do it due to a lack of self-control or because he considers that the benefits are more than the consequences. We can see that he is capable of thinking, making decisions, and aware of the outcomes that it could bring, so the responsibility of making the right decisions like drinking another beverage or not drinking at all are on him.

In this case, as he decides to drink liquor, which leads to drinking it in excess and misbehave, we can see that he was not responsible for his decisions.
