Is refusing to help people moral or immoral (v2)?
Post Body
A while back, I posed the following hypothetical:
It seems the majority of people think it is immoral, and it is just to penalise the person for this decision. They also believe an inaction counts as a moral action.
Now I pose a different set of questions.
If someone has the immediate ability to prevent something good from happening but doesn't, is their inaction an act of good? And if so, should they be rewarded for their inaction, if it can be proven that they could have prevented the good?
