Question: Should Woods be held accountable for his action?
Answer: Yes
WHY:?
Because he is a fully-formed human being capable of thinking and making choices. He is matured enough to realize repercussions/consequences of his actions. Aristotle distinguishes moral from intellectual virtues. As a moral being, we should have both- moral: to discern right from wrong; and intellectual: capacity of thinking and make use of knowledge.
Woods, is lacking the moral aspect when he made the choice to have sex with other women beside his wife. Intellectually, I may say he has none, because to me, both are hand in hand.
Question 2: Should we still accept him in the society?
Answer: Probably not.
Reason: He is a role model, and with that are responsibilities that he has to uphold. His infidelity influences many people to justify their actions of cheating their spouses. The widespread media report that is being sensationalized makes people think that it is common nowadays to commit infidelity, and not received any punishments.
WHERE DOES THIS LEAVE ANWAR?
