Subject: RE: BS: Ethics
Abortion-Right or wrong?
a tragedy, but sometimes necessary and very rarely my decision.

Capital Punisment " "
Wrong because justice is so often flawed. If I could always be 100% certain then I know that there are people in this world that we don't need.

Wrong because even informed consent can be cooerced. But if someone I loved was asking for release then I'd do it regardless of the consequenses.

Difficult because we eat animals and that certainly doesn't do them much good. However most of us are opposed to obvious cruelty.

War "   "
Offensive No, Defensive Yes. But once you get started it becomes difficult to tell the difference.
