Moral scenarios Would Kant think
Give two reasons for
Tom gives 10% of his earnings each
year to charity because his religion
says he should.
Gail was out shopping one day and
noticed a person stuffing a bottle of
perfume into her bag. She tells the
security guard.
Gareth’s granny is very old and frail.
He believes it is his duty to care for
her but his wife says she will leave
him if his granny comes to live with
them. He invites his granny to stay
anyway
Susan wants to be a teacher but she
lacks experience working with
children so she decides to volunteer
for Childline.
Do you agree with Kant?
this was morally your answer
acceptable?
YES NO
Yes Tom should practice his religion and aid
others; thus, I concur with him the
underprivileged
No Kant and I don't agree since I think the persons
listed below should strive to help. There is a
conflict between following the law and
allowing theft.
Yes Since his elderly grandmother is likely pretty
frail and unable to care for herself, I think
Gareth is appropriate to fulfill his obligation to
look after her.
No I disagree with Kant because I believe that
Susan is doing the right thing by helping the
sick and pursuing her own aspirations, even
though it is not her responsibility.
