Kant's famous First Formulation of the Categorical Imperative reads:Act only according to that maxim whereby you can at the same

time will that it should become a universal law. Kant taught morality as a matter of following maxims of living that reflect absolute laws. "Universal" is a term that allows for no exceptions, and what is universal applies always and everywhere.Lying, for any reason, is universally wrong. Be sure to listen to Kant's audio lecture before posting this week! So, consider the famous case of the Crazed Murderer. In your town the Crazed Murderer comes to your door looking for your friend and wanting to kill him.You know that your friend went home to hide. What do you tell the murderer? When he leaves and runs up the street to your friend's house, what do you do?

Answer:

Universal laws are the ethics that guide the behavior of humankind. These laws are universally accepted by all humans and are followed by them in their daily lives. Law of attraction, the law of vibration, is some of the examples of universal law.

Explanation:

Kant believed that telling a lie is wrong, and murdering a human is a crime. All humans should follow these two principles. Keeping in mind the words of Kant, in the given situation, I will not tell the murderer about the exact location of my friend. I will not remain silent also because that crazy man could kill me too. Instead of telling him the right directions, I will tell him the wrong directions and will send him to the wrong place so that he would not harm my friend and me. Though telling a lie is wrong but saving two lives will be more important to me in this situation.

As soon as the murderer leaves, I will call the police and will tell them the direction in which the murderer has gone. This will save me as well as my friend's life, and the murderer will also get punishment for his sin.

Hope this helps!!
