The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Hello, /christian/.

I am looking for a good Christian critique (preferably from a Cathodox standpoint) of Utilitarianism moral philosophy. Can you recommend me a good artical/encyclical/treatise/etc?

I thank you in advance for your help, brothers.

Pleasure and pain are unquantifiable, utilitarianism doesn't provide an argument as to why pleasure is good and/or that pain is bad. Truth, beauty, and justice don't have any place outside of their mere utility, their function. It is the prostitution of morality.

See the "utility monster" argument, but also poiny out how it's sinful, theologically.
