15. To perform an act that is morally wrong is to offend against humanity, and all offenses against humanity are equally bad. Because murder is morally wrong, it is just as bad to have murdered one person by setting off a bomb as it would have been to have murdered a hundred people by setting off that bomb.
Which one of the following judgments conforms to the principles invoked above?
(A) If lying is morally wrong, telling a lie is as bad as murdering someone.
(B) Risking one’s life to save the lives of a hundred people is morally no better than risking one’s life to save one person.
(C) If stealing is morally wrong, it is equally important to society to prevent people from stealing as it is to prevent then from committing murder.
(D) Accidentally causing the death of a person is just as bad as murdering that person.
(E) In a situation in which the life of one person can be saved only by killing another person, killing and not killing are equally bad.
