When I was chatting with my long-time American friend on Teams, he introduced me a very interesting game. Although there is no correct answers, and it's just for fun, I'd like to share it with you here.
In the game, there is a trolley heading to five people, but if you pull a lever, you can save those five people, but the trolley will be diverted onto another track and one person will die instead. What would you do? After you make your choice, you can see what percentage of people chose each answer. Give it a try and what you think!
Enjoy the game.
After playing the game, we talked about the trolley problem. It was fascinating to think about how people make decisions and how the human mind works when faced with such a difficult moral dilemma.

We've discussed about this dilemma in the philosophy class back in high school. We've also watched a czech short firm called "Most" (2003), which has a similar theme. I believe it's available on YouTube with english subtitles if you're interested
Thank you for as always. It must be fascinating to discuss it in a class! In Japan, we don't get such education and I envy you!
I'd like to look up the video. Thank you!!
