Question

identify a specific ethical quandary facing the world today (e.g., abortion, euthanasia, gun rights, etc.) defend your arguments carefully, rather than simply stating opinions as fact.

Answer 1

In the 21st century, the world is facing many ethical issues and problems. Some of them are given below:

Euthanasia:

According to supporters of euthanasia, every individual has a right to die with respect or dignity and avoid unbearable pain. He should allow others to manage it for him if he is unable to do their own because it is our own body and we may allow doing what we want to do with it in order to reduce pain and suffering. Banning of euthanasia is both immoral and unethical.

On the other hand, opponent argues that our life is a gift of God and no one has the right to take it.

Another argument is that legalizing euthanasia can create it a tool of murder because people may abuse it.

Abortion:

Supporter's argument is that abortion is both rationally and ethically correct because in some situation mother's health condition may not allow her to sustain the pregnancy. Hence, in order to save her life, it should be allowed. this argument also is based on the utilitarian view.

On the other hand, opponents argue that life is a gift of God and no one has the right to take it.

Gun control:

Gun violence is one of the main social issues rapidly increasing in the U.S.

It is a major threat to our society because it does not only cause injuries and death to our citizens but also a major problem to the internal security of the nation.

National rifle association or NRA is so powerful in the U.S because they are bipartisan, highly organized, cares about the issue of gun control, and voice of many voters for the same.

NRA supports gun rights and actively influence policymakers and politicians by spending lots of money to stop gun control in U.S

This form biased because it only represents and supports one view without looking at the risk and increasing problems related to the gun in the society of U.S.

Despite many recent incidents of mass shooting, they don’t ready to even listen to the voice of another side.
