Ethics [Thursday, April 21, 2011, 1st period]

"Good morning, class," Anakin said, sweeping into the classroom with his cape billowing out behind him. "Today's your final exam. As with most things in this course, there are not necessarily right or wrong answers. I only want you to explain your choices. If you leave me with half-assed or badly argued replies, that's when I grow unhappy."

He passed out the exams. "You've been an adequate class, more or less." Which was high praise, for Anakin. "Begin."

Re: Question #1

Katniss took a moment and considered. For her own mother, she wouldn't do a lot.

So instead she fixed the question, confident that her reasoning would be understood.

You arrive home after an extended period away to discover your (hypothetical) mother sister has been kidnapped and presumed dead. What do you do and why?

a) Mourn and move on.
b) Brood about it constantly. Perhaps write poetry.
c) Ignore the idea that she might be dead and go after her yourself. Upon finding her remains, torch the village she was in.
d) None of the above.
