Laurel concludes that modern moral theories have to be abandoned or reworked, because they don’t provide guidance in extreme. Extreme cases are the times when people most need guidance.

Miriam asserts that moral theories can still be useful, even if not useful in all situations. They serve their purpose if they’re useful in a wide variety of common situations.

We’re looking for a point of disagreement. They disagree about whether moral theories’ failure to help in extreme situations justifies abandoning or reworking them. Laurel think it does, but Miriam thinks it doesn’t.

Miriam doesn’t have an opinion. She describes what we need from a moral theory, but doesn’t describe whether it’d be better for a moral theory to provide solutions to all problems that could arise.

Neither speaker has an opinion. They don’t discuss whether people abandoned earlier theories or why people abandoned earlier theories.

This is a point of disagreement. Laurel thinks a moral theory’s adequacy does depend on its ability to guide in extreme cases. But Miriam believes it doesn’t. A moral theory just needs to provide guidance in the most common situations.

Neither speaker has an opinion. They don’t discuss whether people ever need different moral theories during different situations.

Neither speaker has an opinion. They don’t discuss whether moral theories that apply in extreme cases are unlikely to provide guidance in more typical cases.
