Those interested in the Omelas short story that I mentioned, and its relation to Utilitarianism can look at some discussions we had on this site by clicking HERE<\/a>… I also talked about moral dilemmas – such as those at http:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/1\/hi\/magazine\/4954856.stm<\/a> – which might remind you of some of the ones I used in the session!<\/div>\n

I hope the sessions were of some use for your AS Religious Studies paper – and thanks for inviting me..<\/div>\n
