In English today we were talking about the trolley dilemma. We were given the choice to voice our opinion in front of the class regarding the trolley dilemma. So here is the situation:
You control the path which the trains take. On one side there are 5 stuck individuals and on the other is one person on the track. You are to make the choice of killing the 5 or the 1.
My opinion:
I would let the 1 die to let the 5 live. Of course, it is a cruel and hard choice to make but it would be easier to save the 5 and let the 1 die. You do not need to tell an extra 4 families that their family member has passed away in a train accident. So its best to kill the one to let the 5 live.
