A quick definition of conjectura pietatis:

Term: CONJECTURA PIETATIS

Definition: Conjectura pietatis is a Latin term that refers to a conclusion that is drawn from a sense of duty or obligation. It is a belief or assumption that is made based on a natural feeling of responsibility or respect.

For example, if someone assumes that a person is telling the truth because they have always been honest in the past, this is a conjectura pietatis. It is based on a sense of duty to trust and respect the person's character.

Overall, conjectura pietatis is a way of making conclusions based on a moral obligation or sense of responsibility, rather than purely logical reasoning.

A more thorough explanation:

CONJECTURA PIETATIS

Conjectura pietatis is a Latin term that refers to a conclusion that arises from a natural duty.

  • A son taking care of his elderly parents out of a sense of duty and love, even if it means sacrificing his own time and resources.
  • A teacher going above and beyond to help a struggling student, even if it means staying after school or providing extra resources.

These examples illustrate the concept of conjectura pietatis because they both involve individuals fulfilling a duty that arises from a natural sense of obligation or love. In both cases, the individuals are not simply doing their job or fulfilling a contractual obligation, but are going above and beyond because of a deeper sense of duty and responsibility.
