Assignment 4 – Write an essay of at least 500 words aligning the following two objectives with your topic.

Some students make the assignment more complicated than it needs to be.  Imagine the assignment in this way – there is no capstone paper, you have only been given a topic and program objectives. You then answer the question of how that topic relates to the program objectives. That is all you need to do.

1.) What do you think the founders original intent with the first amendment, specifically the freedom of religion, was?

2.) When Congress passed the RFRA in 1993, what was this designed to do? How have the many states reacted to this? Does Texas have any laws with regards to RFRA?

4.) What recent decisions did the Supreme Court make with regards to religion and politics?

5.) What civil liberty and/or civil rights issues may arise as a result of these most recent laws?  In your opinion, are civil liberties/rights in danger?

Read Aaron Ridleys article Ill-Gotten Gains: On the Use of Results from Unethical Experiments in Medicine (Public Affairs Quarterly 9, no. 3 [July 1995]). Ridley examines the question of whether to make use of beneficial results that were obtained unethically from medical experiments performed on human beings. While many would probably say that such benefits should not be withheld, Ridley suggests it would be inappropriate to make use of such results. Given his article, address the following questions:

1. In your own words, explain Ridleys argument based on utilitarianism and the Ideal Experimenter. According to Ridley, how might the Ideal Experimenter effectively be persuaded to conform to non-utilitarian standards of experimental practices?
2. In the end, do you think Ridleys argument succeeds? Suppose some researchers performed experiments on children in which many of them suffered and died, but in the process, the researchers obtained information that could wipe out cancer. Should they use that information?
3. Ridley presents two reasons for not using the results of unethical experiments that he believes are not effective: respect and condoning. Why does he think these fail? Do you agree with him? If not, give an example in which you think an appeal to respect or condoning would be successful in arguing against the use of such results.
