A (horrible) Question of Ethics	by Illiad	2008-04-28 08:51:02
both decisions are the same.	by perlcat45	2008-04-28 09:13:12
They're not the same	by MatthewDBA	2008-04-28 09:16:05
Certainty of what?	by perlcat45	2008-04-28 09:31:43
Whether a situation is unwinnable	by MatthewDBA	2008-04-28 09:37:43
It's not more ethical	by perlcat45	2008-04-28 10:11:36
In other words,	by MatthewDBA	2008-04-28 10:24:37
you believe that neither choice is more ethical; that's your answer. That's fine. Whether certainty of life to one child is better than possibility of life to both is not "information that isn't part of the question"; the point of the discussion of the question is not simply to answer the question, but to discover the answerer's opinion on whether the certainty is "better than" the probability. In other words, the point of the exercise isn't to answer the question, it's to expose one's pre-conceptions. You appear to be assuming that the point is to answer the question.
