Fair, Valentine's is a waste of time anyway.

Two pretty common ethics situations:
1) You are on a bridge over a railway with someone else and two people are tied to the line up ahead. You push the other guy on the bridge off in front of the train and he dies but stops the train, saving the two people tied down.
2) The train is going to run over two people as in 1), but there is a fork in the railway line. On the other fork, there is one person tied down. You pull the lever which causes the train to run over the one guy instead of the two guys.

Bonus: if you gave different answers, what is the difference between the two situations?

Valentines day is awesome ^^

The lady doth protest less than usual for my sexual demands :love:

1. Foul.

It would be murder to throw the person off the bridge. All life is valid and sacrificing one for two in a situation like that is wrong. I'm pretty sure you would serve time for that as well.

2. Fair.

This situation is not murder as in scenario 1 although they are similar scenarios indeed. All the guys lives are already forfeit with no action from you. You are not taking an outsider (innocent) and forfeiting there lives, that would otherwise be perfectly safe, to save the other two people. You are then left with few choices. You can do nothing and let the two people die. This I believe is foul as you have a duty to save the maximum amount of people involved in the incident. The other option is correct, pulling the lever and maximizing survivors is the humane thing to do.

If a white couple had a colored baby that was the biological offspring of both the parents, is it fair or foul for the father to accuse adultery/ demand paternity testing?

Euthanasia means suicide, by the way. :p

Err, I'd have to say foul with your one though.

Telling on a friend at school for making you do something which isn't allowed. (Think kinda big here, eg. vandalism rather than just chatting a bit in class)

Foul. It's your fault for being dumb enough to do what he says.

Turning off your phone to avoid calls/texts from someone just because you don't wanna be bothered.

I replied here yesterday, completely inoffensive in what I said and someone felt the need to delete it without informing me?

Gee, thanks.

FAIR * 1000. I hate the modern assumption that everyone should be available to talk to anyone at pretty much any time.

Deleting someone's post without informing them.

Foul.

Complaining about how bad your food tastes when there are poor kids out there who barely eat anything at all

Fair.

I should eat unpleasant tasting food because others have very little? Although taste is a subjective thing, I do not feel obligated to sit through an unpleasant (though likely nutritious) meal when I have the ability to choose food that is too my liking. It is neither my fault nor responsibility that I live in a country with access to food choice so I certainly don't feel pained when I indulge that right to choose.

Is it fair or foul to answer the telephone whilst engaged in the act of self gratification and to talk to said person while continuing 'the act' unexplained.

Fair, unless the subject of your self-gratification is the person you are talking to, in which case, sexy and fair.
