JUSTICE
–WHAT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO ?
Ella 2011.05.24
WOO, WHAT IS JUSTICE?
Justice is the concept of moral rightness based on ethics, rationality, law, natural law, religion, fairness, or equity, along with the punishment of the breach of said ethics. Simply, it tells, what is the right thing to do.
THOSE ARE QUITE HARD FOR EVERYONE…YOU NEED TO THINK FOR A LONGER TIME TO SUPPORT YOURSELF.
Let’s move to some other issues.
WHITE LIES
Is telling a misleading truth morally equivalent to lying? White lie=lie?
SITUATION Law religion ?
Alright, now go again, You are just a passenger standing at the platform near a fat man. Now the same train is coming and also running to the five workers. Strangely, you know that the fat man is fat enough to stop the train if you push him down the rail. So what would you do in 3 seconds acs ? Or ?
Alright , the train accident is gone, Now you are the only doctor in the emergency room and you receive the five rail workers, who got injured in five different organs. Only organ transplant could rescue these workers. Without your immediate operation, three of them will die soon. However, you find that there is a healthy patient with a cold fell asleep next door. He can offer that five organs. What would you do ? Leave the five workers to die or kill the patient?
TO TELL THE TRUTH
When is telling the truth the wrong thing to do?
TAX
If you wouldn’t get caught, would you pay the tax?
QUEUE
Have you ever jumped the queue (line) ? Are there any excuses to jump the queue? List them. If someone jump the queue right in front of you… If someone jump the queue several persons ahead of you, and no body says anything…
SITUATION
Majority or minority welfare fairness equity ?
4 sailors just survive from a storm. After 19 days of drifting, now they are facing a deadly problem, that they do not have food to hang on. To live, the captain decides to kill a boy who is the weakest and will die two more days later. (you know the reason. )
SITUATION
Suppose a man has planted a bomb in New York City, and it will explode in twenty-four hours unless the police are able to find it. Should it be legal for the police to use torture to get information from the suspected bomber?
SITUATION
Fairness equity ? Suppose, You are a train driver. When you are operating the train just out of the tunnel, you see there are five workers are working on the rail. But you do not have the time to notice them or stop the train. At the same time, you notice there is only one worker on the other railway and you have time to change your direction to that rail. Within this 3 seconds, what would you do ? Drive the train to the one or the five?
NOW, What is justice to you?
So , understandings of justice differ in each culture?
