A mаdmаn whо hаs threatened tо set оff several bombs in crowded areas has been apprehended. Unfortunately, he has already planted the bombs and they are scheduled to go off in a short time. It is possible that hundreds of people may die. The authorities cannot make him divulge the location of the bombs by conventional methods. He refuses to say anything and requests a lawyer to protect his fifth amendment right against self-incrimination. In exasperation, a high-level official suggests torture. This would be illegal, but the official is sure that it will make him tell the truth in just enough time for you to find and defuse the bombs. You, however, know that the bomber will be able to withstand the torture; after all, he is quite mad. He might talk, though, if you torture his innocent wife (who is also in the building). What should you do? Explain, in detail, what the morally correct action is according to Kantian ethics. Include in your answer, the categorical imperative, the maxims, and an explanation of what, according to Kant, would be “reasonable.” Use only what is in “What is ethics anyway?” and include at least five citations from that chapter. Do you agree with the explanation of what is morally correct according to Kantian ethics? Explain.
