Ethics

We have an issue. Every week we will receive 2 questions from our school, which are the multiple choice questions about medical ethics.

First the questions are not actually multiple choice questions. The choices 1)Strongly agree, 2)agree, 3)neither agree or disagree, 4)disagree and 5)strongly disagree. The better term, but still an incorrect term, is Yes or No question.

While I am not intelligent enough to see the difference between a strongly agree with an agree, I am not sure whether there is any ethics that can be answered in this way. According to our philosopher Hegal, everything is this world has two sides. Whenever you give a statement, there must have some arguments for it and arguments against it. I personally dislike Euthanasia, but then I am not ethical enough to educate the people in European to act against it.

The more serious problem is that, our classmate would make some voting system for the question in Facebook. As you know, we tend to be the majority in doing examination because the failure of the system is the inability to fail the majority.

In reality, however, should we consider the majority to be right when they really make really ridiculous choices? When everyone says 2+2 makes 5, is it correct? Is our moral law written by the majority, or someone who really knows it, or is there any moral law?

I just think of a quotation from Nietzsche: "Madness is the exception in individuals but the rule in groups."
