SUMMARY:One Moral Good v. Another Moral Good: Six Legal Cases That Will Dri
 ve You Nuts
DESCRIPTION:This week:\n‘My Culture Made Me Do It’\nKimura and Kargar c
 ases\nModerated by Larry Rosen. Co-sponsored by Castine Arts Association.\
 nDeciding between good and evil is easy: Deciding between one moral good a
 nd another moral good is not. Should an American Indian tribe\, whose memb
 ers are also US citizens\, be able to favor men over women to preserve its
  traditions and independence? May those starving on a life raft eat one of
  their number to survive? Should a doctor be forced to let a patient die w
 hose religion forbids a life-saving blood transfusion? May a foreigner who
  euthanized his incurably malformed\, pain-ridden child be denied American
  citizenship because he is guilty of “moral turpitude”? Collectively\,
  we will discuss the issues involved\; individually\, each of us must deci
 de what is right.\nRosen is the Cromwell Professor Emeritus of Anthropolog
 y at Princeton University and Adjunct Professor of Law Emeritus at Columbi
 a University. A member of the bar of the U.S. Supreme Court and named to t
 he first group of MacArthur Award recipients he has taught family law at v
