Introduction
Each person owes a duty to himself or herself and to the world to study ethics and to engage in thoughtful debate about what is right, and what is wrong. It is this habit of thinking about and reflecting on ethics that will help you determine the right choices when faced with an ethical dilemma.

Initial Post Instructions
Articulate a moral dilemma wherein one has to show a specific virtue or virtues (it can be any virtue or virtues including honesty, courage, charity/generosity, compassion, etc.)

  • What is the moral dilemma about?
  • What virtue or virtues should be shown? (You are here selecting the best course of action)
  • Why is that virtue or those virtues to be shown?
  • How should the virtue or virtues be expressed, and why in that manner?
  • Apply Aristotle's golden mean to the dilemma.
  • Tell us how the dilemma involves conflict moral duties (loyalty to community versus to self, professional versus familial duties, national or personal obligations).

The dilemma must be a situation in which a choice has to be made.

Be sure you told us why your chosen course of action was best.

Follow-Up Post Instructions

Ethics of Euthanasia: Case Study
Euthanasia is purposefully ending the life of a terminally ill person to relieve their pain
and suffering. The act is also known by other terms such as mercy killing and physician-assisted
suicide. There are several categories of euthanasia. First, Voluntary euthanasia is when the
patient requests for physician-assisted suicide. On the other hand, non-voluntary euthanasia is if
the terminally sick individual cannot ask for euthanasia. Perhaps because they cannot
communicate or are unconscious, and an appropriate person decides on their behalf, may be

involuntary euthanasia is when the patient wants to live but is killed anyway. It is essentially
murder. Euthanasia can also be grouped as passive or active. Passive cases involve withholding
or withdrawing treatment to let the patient die. In contrast, active cases consist of taking action
that will deliberately and directly cause death, like administering a lethal injection. This paper
will present an example case of euthanasia and disentangle the moral dilemmas that arise.
The core reason for asking for euthanasia is usually unbearable pain in a terminally sick
person. This request happens when the medical team considers caring futile since it is entirely
