Gonna go to school part time in August to finish my mechanical engineering bachelor’s but I’ve already worked it out with my boss where I can do all my lectures the same days and then come run overnight shift the other days. This is mainly for learning’s sake so I plan to go full time again when I graduate since I still love my job so much

A Murder Puzzle - Getting Started

In common with a number of other activities on this site, Murder Play is based on the work of our favourite philosopher, Judith Jarvis Thomson. Probably you’ll be pleased to hear that this time it doesn’t involve trolleys. However, it does involve a surgeon, and a murder, so that’s exciting; and it won’t take very long, so click the button below to get started.

Moral Judgement 1 of 2

Okay, we’re going to start by asking you to make a judgement about what it is that makes an act morally permissible (or not).

Does an assessment of whether some act is morally worse than another act, settle the question of what it is morally permissible for an agent to do? So, for example, given a choice between only two acts, x and y, where x is morally worse than y, does the fact that x is morally worse than y settle the question of what it is permissible to do (i.e., so in this instance, it would only be permissible to do y, the less worse act).

Important: You don’t need to worry that if you respond “Yes” you’re going to get caught out because of some trickery to do with bad consequences. In other words, if you respond “Yes”, you’re not going to get into difficulties because of thoughts about sitautions such as where inflicting more rather than less pain, for example, avoids some horrible outcome, because one can quite consistently argue that in such a situation inflicting less pain would be the morally worse action (and, therefore, to be avoided), precisely because it would have horrible consequences.

Yes, it does settle the question of what it is permissible to do
No, it does not settle the question of what it is permissible to do
