I was looking around online and found an interesting quiz from Randy Cohen's Ethicist web site. I believe the questions are inspired from dilemmas sent in my readers of the Ethicist column in the New York Times Magazine.

From Dan Margolis in Pennsylvania, the question is:

I'm too young to be admitted to R-rated movies. But if my parents don’t mind me seeing a movie, is it wrong for me to lie about my age or buy a ticket to a different movie and sneak in? After all, I’m not cheating the theater out of any money.


For the rest of the quiz, see here:

For those who missed last week's seminar, this dilemma inspired the one I used in the discussions.
