An open question
Love
One of yours or five strangers?
You can save someone you love or five strangers, but not both. Is choosing your person a moral failure, a special duty, or something morality cannot fairly demand you give up?
Love seems to create reasons that impartial arithmetic misses. Decide whether partiality is a flaw in moral life or part of what makes it worth living.
