What is the best match?
hedonism
{ 1 } - A right that we have (or ought to have) simply because we're human beings - and not because we're members of such and such a society
{ 2 } - Many things are intrinsically good (for example, virtue, knowledge, pleasure, life, and freedom)
{ 3 } - A hypothetical situation where people are free, clearheaded, and know all the relevant facts - but don't know about their own place in society (whether rich or poor, black or white, male or female)
{ 4 } - A duty that holds if other things are equal; more precisely, a factor that tends in itself to make something our duty but can sometimes be overridden by other factors
{ 5 } - Pleasure is the only intrinsic good; pain is the only intrinsic bad. (This is ethical hedonism; psychological hedonism claims that people act only for the sake of gaining pleasure and avoiding pain.)
