Instructions: In most cases, moral and ethical dilemmas are dilemmas because they cannot be easily solved. For this reason, there generally are not right or wrong answers. Therefore, what I am looking for is YOUR logic, YOUR belief system, YOUR critical thinking about how these dilemmas relate to the concepts you’ve learned this week. Your answers should be substantive (generally AT LEAST two paragraphs) and provide examples when appropriate.
