The "Shakespeare vs. Britney Spears" website also didn’t work for me. For the
other quiz "A Murder Puzzle” my results were that I passed and that there are no
tensions in my responses. my complication was that I’m at risk from tension. The
scenarios were a little bit similar However, they were somewhat different. For the
first scenario when it asked that X was morally worse than Y and they asked if it
was somewhat permissible and I answered no it does not settle the question of
where it is permissible to do and the reason why I believe so that doesn't mean
that X is worst than Y not make Y permissible. In the second scenario, I was
asked if killing five innocent people worse than killing one innocent person. I
answered "yes" killing five innocent people is worse than killing one. Although I
know that every person's lives count, However in my opinion I do believe that five
killings are worse than one. In the scenario where it asked the doctor was going
to operate on a patient who did not permit to do so to save five lives. I answered
that it is not permissible for the surgeon to operate because the person that is
going to be operated on has a say and it would be against his will because he did
not agree to it. And I do think that no matter the circumstance you should never
have something that is rightfully yours be taken away from you, for example,
being operated on, or for some other reason.
In my opinion, ethics is relative and aesthetics is objective and the reason why I
believe so because every person has their own differences, different lifestyles,
different experiences than the other. Some people are born to believe in judgment
in certain ways and some people believe judgments in other ways and you cannot
determine all humankind to be one thing or one way of seeing things.
