Person who believes jews have a divine right to israel

You own an unoccupied property. You are contacted by a refugee group which desperately needs somewhere to house a person seeking asylum who is being unjustly persecuted in a foreign country. Your anonymity is assured. You have every reason to believe that no harm will come to your property. Are you morally obliged to allow them to use your property?

Strongly Obliged
Weakly Obliged
Not Obliged

WAIT WRONG ONE

A charity collection takes place in your office. For every UKĀ£10.00 given, a blind person’s sight is restored. Instead of donating UKĀ£10.00, you use the money to treat yourself to a cocktail after work. Are you morally responsible for the continued blindness of the person who would have been treated had you made the donation?

Responsible
Partly Responsible
Not Responsible
