Prompt Utilitarianism says that we should judge the morality of our actions sol

PromptUtilitarianism says that we should judge the morality of our actions solely by their consequences, andthat we ought to set aside other factors that might seem morally relevant if they get in the way ofcreating the greater overall good. I want you to assess what you think about that theory, using thereadings by Rachels on euthanasia and Singer on poverty as case studies. Are there any other factorsbesides the consequences of our actions that at least seem morally relevant to you in these cases?Consider some of these alternative factors, and then tell me whether you think overall thatutilitarianism is right to set them aside and say that our actions should fundamentally be judged by theirconsequences.
