Morality poll
Question #1.
A trolley is coming down a track, and it's going to run over and kill five people if it continues. A person standing next to a track can flip a switch and turn the trolley onto a side track where it will kill one but save the five. Do you flip the switch and kill one to save the five? Question #2. A nurse comes up to a doctor and says "Doctor we've got five patients in critical care; each one needs an organ to survive. We do not have time to send out for organs, but a healthy person just walked into the hospital. We can take his organs and save the five. Is that OK?" |

Re: Morality poll
#2 is obvious. If you flip the switch in #1, you have committed murder. Mitigating circumstances? Perhaps. But murder nonetheless.

After re-reading the thread, and slamming a couple of stiff drinks, I must now agree that I did indeed suck. It was certainly not my desire, or intent. I allowed chezlaw's evasive responses to get under my skin, and that fact was glaringly obvious in the arrogant tone of my subsequent posts. So, actually, it's all chez's fault.

Re: Morality poll
1) is a fairly easy flip the switch. 2) is a stunningly easy not ok.

I assume the person making the decision would have no fear of getting caught?
