Moral Theories
1. How does racial discrimination violate the principle of impartiality? Would discriminating based on some other factor (but which happened to result in the same split) also violate the principle of impartiality? For example, you need a certain grade point average to get into WCC. Is that also discriminatory?
2. What is the logic behind the principle of universalizability? Cite an example of how the principle has entered your moral deliberations.
3. Suppose you try to use the Ten Commandments as a moral code to make moral decisions. How would you resolve conflicts between commandments? Do you approach to resolving the conflicts imply a more general moral theory lying behind the Ten Commandments? If so, explain the main idea behind the theory?
5. According to Kant, why is breaking a promise or lying (always) immoral? Do you agree with Kant? Why or why not?
