Multiple Choice
It's possible that someone would have to choose between performing or not performing an action that could lead to serious harm to a friend-yet each choice could involve the same two virtues in contradictory ways (for example, one choice could privilege the virtue of honesty to the detriment of loyalty, and the other could privilege loyalty to the detriment of honesty) . Such a case suggests that virtue ethics may have a problem with
A) Criterion 1 (consistency with commonsense moral judgments) .
B) Criterion 2 (consistency with moral experience) .
C) Criterion 3 (usefulness) .
D) both Criterion 1 and Criterion 2.
