@Dusty72150545 @UBXenos Socrates admits that he is ignorant, so I feel like he is more self-aware than at least most of the people he spoke to. #I2E21

@Dusty72150545 I think they would have still been resistant but would not have struggled as much against being freed. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

I liked the idea of Socratic Knowledge as I have always had more respect for people willing to admit that they are unsure then people who try to answer things they don't know. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@sqrimbey This is a good point as misinformation still has serious consequences, and Socrates was aware of that all those years ago. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@BeruIfberu I agree. I think our knowledge of the world is based on our own experiences so it would be hard to believe someone describing things we cannot even imagine. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@JonathanDaity This is a good point, but it seemed that they had already tried negotiating and the creator of the medicine was refusing to change his demands. #I2E21

The Game of Thrones quote prompted me to think of my own definition of bravery, and while it is definitely brave to act in spite of fear, I think one can still be brave even if they are not afraid. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

I agree with Jake and think that it would be fair if he stole the medicine because even though stealing is not morally correct, exceptions should be made when it comes down to life or death. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@jam_jub_ub The way he priced the medicine is similar to how we see essential medical items like insulin being priced so highly despite being affordable to produce. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

Reading the example about Jake and Amy reminded me of Brooklyn Nine Nine and made me wonder how that pair would respond in the same situation. #I2E21

@UBXenos @ProfessorDEG I don't think that I found him easy, but his work is readable because of how interesting it is. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@juliejacobs07 I think that one of the main reasons for this is that the cruel tend to be the ones with less of a conscience. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@KayliReynolds24 I think pain is a sensation that causes humans to show their truest nature, which makes it helpful for the hypothetical questions often posed in philosophy. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@NickCeci67 @JRJw44 @ProfessorDEG I think translation makes a significant difference. This can also be seen in how there are so many different versions of religious scriptures that have been translated down the years. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

I believe that an action holds moral worth even if one is not acting from duty, as they are still doing what needs to be done. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@KelzPag I think the event organizers are the most responsible as they accepted the responsibility of taking care of everyone's rights and failed to do so. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@ZacharyMeo @ethicsub The people at the concert had a right to security that was not provided to them, so their rights have been violated. The issue seems to be determining who is responsible for the violation. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@LowShamya I think it depends on what kind of disease it is. If it is contagious than I think it would be justifiable to force treatment, but if they are the only one affected than they can make their own decision. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@UBXenos I agree that it is difficult to not separate them, but I do believe that national security should always be placed above personal liberties. #I2E21

[Danyal Hassan @DanyalHasan2011]

@jozefgar In many cases it may be international courts or organizations such as the European Union. #I2E21
