Can two people who make the same bad decision bear different levels of moral responsibility? Today, we try to address this question with the concept of moral luck. Hank explains the difference between moral and causal responsibility, and the reasons we assign praise and blame.

I always believed that both A and B are to blame because they both needlessly put others at risk.

People should be judged by their actions and intentions not about the consequences. That is literally how "God" judges.

If moral is based on luck, then it wouldn't be fair if someone is morally better than others. Therefore, we should abandon morals and never judge someone. Because you can"t blame or praise someone for being unlucky or lucky therefore you can't blame or praise someone for being morally bad or good.

It irks me when we praise firefighters and police for being these selfless individuals when that is not necessarily or even often their intent, but I guess I see that is necessary for society.

Some schools of theology would disagree that ought implies can. God gives laws that He expressly knows and says no one is able to perfectly keep. Why such an unreachable standard of moral perfection? To humble us, cause us to see our insufficiency, and ask for His sufficiency.

Blame for what specifically? A and B are equally blameworthy for being irresponsible for driving drunk. B is guilty of both drunk driving and killing the child. If caught, an external factor, then A would have been arrested for drunk driving.

I think A and B should absolutely be blamed equally. After all, even if technically A's actions didn't directly cause a death, A is contributing to the norm of drunk driving which in turn causes many deaths, including, to some degree, the one directly caused by B.

Interesting. To me A and B are obviously both equally immoral. “Blame” is a tricky word. The parents can and probably will blame B for he accident but can hardly blame A.

You keep saying that I probably think A has less blame. I don’t. A is just as bad as B

3:07 wait wait, so 90% of humans are not morally wrong since they can't truly think for themselves and are just a bunch of atoms bumping into each other convinced they have a free will when they never use it and instead just act on basic animal natural behavior.

This stuff needs more discussion. On a path to living well, we need to illuminate the obstacles in our path to proceed accordingly.. but a lot of it is outside of our control. But maybe give us the chance to learn the easy way, instead of creating externalities in the world before finally being caught up in another person's

You say wrong does not need to be related to harm, but in fact in the example of the dressing room, the guys taking pictures are willing to do so, even knowing that there is a possibility that it may cause harm to someone in the future. So basically wrong always relates to harm somehow.

Creepy and wrong aren't the same thing, they're just similarly unpalatable so get jumbled up.

What if the child ran in front of B's car in a way that no matter how aware and sharp the driver the child would be run over?
Does that change the moral responsibility?
Jasmine K

could it be possible that A was aware that the streets would be deserted? and that B was aware that their street is less likely to be deserted? (in that case, B is slightly more to blame)

Yes. Both of them were equally responsible, but tell the parents of the kid that.

So what's the moral difference between murder and attempted murder? Should we not just slap the same punishment on both?

I finished this morality playlist in one sitting and my brain hurts…
There’s so many theories, and they all seem somewhat but not completely true…idk…there’s no one right answer….
I understand this moral luck concept. I always think of the driving forces behind people’s actions. These same 2 drunk people chose to drunk drive without considering the negative consequences. In other words, they are only thinking of their own needs/pleasure; if they thought that they could potentially kill a person and feel sympathy, they would not drink and drive. So I think they should be equally blamed, but punishment is different and that’s when luck comes to play
