Ethics Discussion Homework

Do you think Batman should kill the Joker? Should the controller switch the trolley to another track? Are these questions one and the same? Identify the moral implications of such actions, employing both Kantian and utilitarian theories.   Reflecting on your own life, describe a real-life scenario where you had to make an ethical decision, choosing between deontological and teleological options. Do you see any connections between Batman’s decisions and your own scenario? What could you learn from Batman’s actions in your life?

At least 250 words and must substantively integrate the assigned readings from the module with proper  style formatting. You may use additional sources and materials as long as they are relevant to the discussion and cited properly.
