A question of ethics should not be confused with questionable ethics. 
In iVisit on Monday we read an article on business ethics, and today we discussed ethics in general and ethical / unethical behaviour online.
Ethics - a system of accepted beliefs which control behaviour, especially such a system based on morals.
Morals - standards for good or bad character and behaviour.
Is it even possible to behave ethically today?
Has anyone ever been tempted to act unethically?
As promised here is a link to the Ethics Quiz.
And here are a couple of questions for you. PM me your answer.
-------------------------------------
A woman comes to you for advice. She is pregnant, and already has 8 children, three of her children are deaf, two are blind, one is mentally
retarded, and she has an incurable illness. Would you recommend that she terminate the pregnancy?

* Candidate C
