Based on what you have studied thus far this week, what is meant by "survival of the fittest" and how does it pertain to ethics?
Scenario:
I'm going to provide a familiar scenario to you and ask, "who gets to go in the capsule and why"?
The earth as we know it has deteriorated and we have reached a time similar to Noah's time when he made the ark. However, we are not going to be destroyed by water this time. Rather, there will be fire! Mankind has been supplied a capsule that will fit 12 people for 7 days while the earth as we know it is destroyed. You are a part of the committee to select these 12 people.
