Day Eight: Ethics Presentations, Final Minecraft Responses, and The Social Dilemma
by Baker Croyle On Thursday morning, we began with finishing the work that we had not previously completed for our presentations on the trolley problem, Nihilism and existentialism, and Immanuel Kant's moral code and ethics. After that, we presented and then moved into a fruitful seminar based off what we had just learned while listening to our classmates. We discussed Kant's moral responsibilities and whether it is better to lie or tell the truth, as well as nihilism and existential crises.
