Recently a company fired some people for unknown reasons. Some workers think the managers are listening in on employees through a intercom system and using the information against them. The managers deny this charge. The union says it will only do something about it when there is proof. Two workers then break into the main office and take the tapes that prove the managers were listening in.


1. Would you disagree or agree with the workers' behavior ? 
How acceptable do you find the following arguments IN FAVOR OF the two workers' behavior?

Suppose someone argued they were RIGHT: 
2. because they did't cause much damage to the company
3. because due to the company's disregard for the law, the means used by the two workers were permissible to restore law and order.
4. because most of the workers would approve of their deed and many of them would be happy about it.
5. because trust between people and individual dignity count more than the firm's internal regulations.
6. because the company had committed an injustice first, the two workers were justified in breaking into the office.
7. because the two workers saw no legal means of revealing the company's misuse of confidence, and therefore chose what they considered the less evil.
How acceptable do you find the following arguments AGAINST the two workers' behavior?

Suppose someone argued they were WRONG:
8. because we would endanger law and order in society if everyone acted as the two workers did.
9. because one mustn't violate right of property ownership and take the law into one's own hands unless universal moral principle justified doing so.
10. because risking dismissal from the company on behalf of other people is unwise.
11. because trust between people and individual dignity count more than the firm's internal regulations.
12. because the two should have run through the legal channels at their disposal and not committed a serious violation of the law.
13. because the dismissals of the other employees did not affect them and thus they had no reasons to steal the transcripts.
A woman had cancer and she had no hope of being saved. She was in terrible pain and so weak that a large dose of pain killer such as morphine would have caused her death. During a temporary period of improvement, she begged the doctor to give her enough morphine to kill her. She said she could no longer stand the pain and would be dead in a few weeks anyway. The doctor decided to give her an overdose of morphine.

14. Would you disagree or agree with the doctor's behavior? 
How acceptable do you find the following arguments IN FAVOR OF the doctor?

Suppose some said he acted RIGHTLY:
15. because the doctor had to act according to his conscience. The woman's condition justified an exception to the moral obligation to preserve life.
16. because the doctor was the only one who could fulfill the woman's wish; respect for her wish made him act as he did.
17. because the doctor only did what the woman talked him into doing. He need not worry about unpleasant consequences.
18. because the woman would have died anyway and it didn't take much effort for him to give her an overdose of a painkiller.
19. because the doctor didn't really break a law. Nobody could have saved her and he only wanted to shorten her suffering.
20. because most of his fellow doctors would presumably have done the same in a similar situation.
How acceptable do you find the following arguments AGAINST the doctor?

Suppose some said he acted WRONGLY:
21. because he acted contrary to his colleagues' conviction. If they are against mercy killing the doctor shouldn't do it.
22. because one should be able to have complete faith in a doctor's devotion to preserving life even if someone with great pain would rather die.
23. because the protection of life is everyone's highest moral obligation. We've no clear moral criteria for telling between mercy-killing and murder.
24. because the doctor could get himself into much trouble. They have already punished others for dong the same thing.
25. because he could have had it much easier if he had waited and not interfered with the woman's dying.
26. because the doctor broke the law. If one thinks that mercy-killing is illegal, then one should refuse such requests.
