Answer to Question 1

How much
conversation do you consider necessary to meet the requirement that the person
assisted a suicide? Do you believe you have a moral obligation when you
encounter suicidal people on line to try to talk them out of it? Do you have a moral
obligation to attempt to contact their friends and family to inform them of the suicidal
tendencies? Are your moral obligations different for strangers threatening suicide
and close family members or friends?



Answer to Question 2
