You have all heard the classic "If there are two train tracks, one with one person on it and two with the other, and you can divert the train to hit one rather than two, would you?" moral ethics greater good question, but I have a spin on it.
There is a train, and it is about to hit a healthy little girl. You can pull a lever, but if you do so the train will go to a different track where 200 HIV positive men are standing. These men are not going to imminently die and could lead several years of normal life after the event. Would you pull the lever and save the girl but kill the 200 HIV positive men? Or would you let the little girl get killed? I'll wait a bit before stating my opinion. |
