People view ethics differently. defining what is good and evil, right and wrong, is a rather subjective matter. For example, stealing is wrong. However, when you are unemployed, and your family is starving, such actions might not be slightly more justified. However, there are certain actions that are just unacceptable regardless of the context. For example, you do not have the rights to take away another person’s life. Question 27 7.5 / 7.5 pts Your Answer: Do you think that an action ought to be judged morally in terms of its motive, its consequences, something about the nature of the action, or some combination of these? Explain. A combination of all these. A person’s motive, consequences, and the nature of one’s actions or behavior are all personal issues. We on the outside may not be able to grasp what he or she is going through. Hence, we have to fully understand their situation, put ourselves into their shoes before judging them in contrast to the general human morality, in order to conclude if their actions were justified. Question 28 7.5 / 7.5 pts What is the difference between active and passive euthanasia? Is physician-assisted suicide more like active or passive euthanasia? Explain23/01/2021 Module 1 Quiz: Chapter 1 and 10: HUMN 330 Values and Ethics - Jan 2021 - Online https://erau.instructure.com/courses/124795/quizzes/385330?module_item_id=7143018 12/12 Your Answer: your reasoning. Active euthanasia is giving patients a lethal dose of drugs to end their lives in a painless death while passive euthanasia is stopping a current treatment or withdrawing of life support to patients who are in a vegetative state. Physical-assisted suicide is more like active euthanasia because the physician prescribes the drug, intentionally helping a person commit suicide, allowing them to kill themselves. Therefore, this is more like an active rather than passive because the physician prescribes them the drug rather than stopping the patient's treatment Question 29 7.5 / 7.5 pts Your Answer: Do you think that voluntariness is morally important in euthanasia decisions? How important do you think it is? For example, do you think that it is so important that whatever a person requests ought to be done? Explain. Does your conclusion only regard the morality or also the legality of euthanasia? Yes, I do think voluntariness is morally important in euthanasia decisions. It is extremely important, doctors or those executing this procedure should seek the patient’s opinion early and when they have a clear head. My conclusion regards both the morality and legality of euthanasia. I believe it is morally wrong as legalizing euthanasia will only encourage suicide because it is a painless way to die. Regardless of what suffering the person is facing, they should not end their life just to ease their suffering and misery. Quiz Score: 100 out of 100 [Show More]
