eplicants. Suppose that no test (either objective or subjectively introspective) could show this for sure. Would that mean that a given replicant was indeed fully human?

Answer:

Yes, because from the movie, it appears that we cannot so easily delineate what it is and what it isn’t to be human, except through testing (which would be scientific in approach

Explanation:

Blade Runner is a movie which is an adaptation of a science fiction novel by Phillip K.D titled "Do Andrôids Dream of Electric Sheep?" set in the year 2019.

Blade Runner’s most philosophically questions centered around what it means to be human, how do we define ourselves as humans? Do we define ourselves solely on the biological characteristics, or is there something more that makes a human?

Hence, from the movie, the replicants shows most of the characteristics of human, especially in intelligence and empathy, but not biologically.

Therefore, it can be concluded that, we cannot so easily separate what it is and what it is not to be human, except through testing (which would be scientific in approach).

Why does elie wiesel believe indifference is the most dangerous emotion?
Furkat [3]
  <span>ElieWiesel, being just a teenager, witnessed the murder of his family in the Auschwitz concentration camp, where Elie himself was a prisoner. During his stay in the concentration camps, he came to feel that being abandoned by God was worse than being punished by him. It was better an unjust God than an indifferent one, hence the expression that indifference, is the emotion more harmful and more dangerous than anger or hatred. Indifference is not the beginning; is the end. And therefore, indifference is always the friend of the enemy because he benefits from the aggressor, never from his victim, whose pain is magnified when he or she feels forgotten.</span>
