PHIL 1100 COMPLETE LATEST LESSON
1 BASED ACTUAL SET WITH
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
How does Socrates define morality? - correct answer-✅How we ought to live
Outline the details of the Baby Theresa case - correct answer-✅Baby Theresa was born with
Anencephaly, a disease that leaves the child without a cerebellum, cerebrum, or the top of the skull.
Theresa's parents wanted to deliver Theresa and have her organs harvested for donation. Florida law did
not allow this because she wasn't technically brain dead. By the time Theresa died 9 days later, her
organs were not viable and could not be used as transplants.
The Benefits Argument - correct answer-✅If we can benefit someone without harming anyone else, we
ought to do so.
Argument Against Using People as a Mean to Someone Else's End - correct answer-✅It is wrong to use
people as a means to another's end because it is a violation of their autonomy.
Argument for Wrongness of Killing - correct answer-✅It is wrong to kill one person to save another.
What is a possible exception for the Argument for Wrongness of Killing? - correct answer-✅If it is in self-
defense.
What is autonomy? - correct answer-✅Autonomy is a person's ability to decide for themselves how
they wish to live their life.
What are the basic details of the case of Jodie and Mary? - correct answer-✅Jodie and Mary were two
girls born as conjoined twins. Physicians said the girls would not survive after 6 months so they
recommended they be separated, even though if they were to do this, Mary would not survive. Their
parents, who were devout catholics, were opposed to this idea and believed that both of their
daughters' lives were precious and that they could not play a role in ending one of their lives. They
believed it was best to let nature run its course. The hospital petitioned the courts to save at least one of
the twins and the courts granted them permission.
Save as Many as You Can Argument - correct answer-✅Options are to save one twin or let them both
die, doesn't it seem better to save one if possible?
Sanctity of Human Life Argument - correct answer-✅All human life is precious.
What are the basic details of the case of Tracy Latimer? - correct answer-✅Tracy Latimer was a 12 year
old with cerebral palsy. Tracy's father killed her by putting her in the cab of his truck and letting the
exhaust fumes get to her. At the time Tracy died, she weighed around 40 pounds and had the mental
functionality of a 3 month old baby. Tracy had multiple surgeries and would continue to have these
surgeries that cause her severe amounts of pain. Tracy's father was originally sentenced to 1 year in
prison until the Canadian gov challenged this verdict and he was sentenced for an additional 7 years.
Discrimination against Handicapped Argument - correct answer-✅Handicapped people should be given
the same rights and respect as all other people. Mr. Latimer argued that he killed Tracy to put her out of
her misery and bring an end to the pain and suffering she had been experiencing her entire life.
Slippery Slope Argument - correct answer-✅If we accept this idea of "mercy killings", we will slide down
a slippery slope that some lives aren't worth living. This leads to the question of where do we draw the
line?
What is the relationship between morality and reason? - correct answer-✅Moral judgements must be
backed by good reasons.
What is the relationship between morality and matters of personal taste? - correct answer-✅Morality
requires the impartial consideration of each individual's interest.
