Jellybean #49 Oxford Professor of Practical Ethics Julian Savulescu
b'I have a dilemma. It is this; almost all of my ethics are a bunch of poorly thought out lies and assumptions. What am I going to do about it? Perhaps I should ask the Uehiro Chair of Practical Ethics from Oxford, Professor Julian Savulescu.\\n\\nMy ethics are crap. Your ethics are probably crap too. If you think your ethics are definitely not crap then the aforementioned probability just shot up to somewhere very near 1.\\nIf you think Ethics in Medicine are very simple, or even dull, you haven\\u2019t thought about them enough. The more you think about them the harder they get. \\nWhen I was taught ethics as a student it wasn\\u2019t too inspiring. As I butted up against ethical issues as a clinician it was inspiring. How can I not care about a right to life or a right to death, a right to choose or the lack thereof?'
