Ethicist Reacts To Eternals - Are The Eternals The Bad Guys?

2 years ago

Marvel's Eternals is all about one giant ethical dilemma. What is the value of a life? Are all lives equal? Who gets to decide?

These questions tear the Eternals apart, and while I didn't find the movie to be particularly good, I did like thinking about the moral implications. I share those thoughts with you here, and it becomes pretty clear where I stand. But where do you stand? The interesting thing about moral dilemmas is that they often don't have just one right answer. Let's get some conversation going in the comments!
