ethically immoral

two buildings are fire. one of them has three children in it, the other has one. you begin running towards the one with three children. as youre running, you glance over once more at the child standing alone and realize that she is your daughter. what choice do you make now?

The tale of an Eastern sage and his young disciple from my ethics book.

The young man asked, "O Wise Man, what holds up the earth?" The sage responded, "The answer, my son, is a very strong man." After some thought, the young man asked, "What holds up the strong man?" The sage responded, "A large stone, my son." After further reflection, the young man returned and asked what held up the stone. The sage, growing impatient, said, "A turtle, my son." When the young man persisted and asked, "What supports the turtle?" the Wise Man snapped, "Look, kid, from there on it's turtles all the way down."

haha, so many ethical turtles.

i bet ethics class would be much more fun if everyone was blazed.

(interesting tidbit that no one cares about of the day: my linear algebra professor, Paramamasamy Karuppapuachamy (worst name to have when signing something ever), used "-x-" as a symbol for a break in thought. it was the only applicable thing i learned in that class.)
