Reply To: Is Morality Natural? (Year 2)

[Anonymous]

Hello!
Starting from the movie “Eye in the Sky” – I must admit it wasn’t light for me to watch, and overall it didn’t speak to me. To be clear, I believe it is great movie to discuss problem of morality and for sure it makes you wonder “how would I decice?”, but there are low chances that I will watch it again.
Putting myself in place of any character in the movie I wouldnt be able to decide. Of course as we know from the article thinking and acting are two different things. And even if everybody agree that saving 80 people sacrificing one girl is mathematicaly better choice I couldn’t give consent to carry out such an operation. We can’t calculate when it comes to someone’s life.
I still wonder how Colonel was so consistent and ruthless in her decision.
