If I understand what you are asking, I think people in life or death situations should not be held accountable. In most cases, the person in danger would want to live and cry out for help. The person in trouble didn't ask for someone to attack them.
Hi. Although you submitted a text, you did not submit any questions regarding it. This prevents me from giving you any answers. However, to help you out, I'll explain what the text presented means. Hope it's useful.
The text posed in the question above is an excerpt from "Of Plymouth Plantation" written by William Bradford, where he presents a real account of the life of the first English settlers, recently arrived in America. In this excerpt, he shows how the arrival in America was very challenging for all the settlers. They had already faced problems on the way between England and America and when they arrived in the new world, they landed in a place where there was no one to help them with anything. The settlers had neither house nor food, they had to face the harsh winter without any resources to protect them, they did not know any place they could shelter and lived in constant concern about being attacked by the "savages", that is, the natives.
You didn't give the options. However, i'll try.
To me, a stone cannot be ethical because it cannot suffer. Indeed, the capacity for suffering must be satisfied before we talk about interest in a meaningful way. For instance, nothing we could possibly do for a stone could make a difference in its welfare. It don't have interest. Whereas, we, humans have interest. Therefore we can be ethical because we are sentient beings that can be benifited or harmed. It's because we can experience pain as a result.
Hope this helps !
