Carol Gilligan, Peter Singer, Immanuel Kant, Thomas Hobbes, and Ayn Rand standing right before you. You find these icons immediately drawn to the topic of justice between generations. What general issues are at stake? What objections will these philosophers make to one another, and what will their respective replies be? Do you see a way to bring them to consensus?
If Aristotle were tele-transported in time, what would he say about our morals?

In such a meeting, I suspect Gilligan, Singer, Kant, and Hobbes would have a very interesting discussion while Rand would be sitting in the corner, eating paste.

"Screw morals. You have a working tele-transporter!"
@joefromchicago,
Ye, I think it would be hard to keep their attention on justice after revealing a tele-transporter.
Stumble It!
