After I read it thrice, I would have to say that you could have made a 
much better, if not persuasive, argument.

The professor didn't do anything like claiming "I am weak. I need 
desperately your help. Save my life, your Honor. This is the only way out 
for me." He choose to stay, then he did it by not doing anything losing 
his dignity. That was all.

Do I understand him right?  "Shi2(?) Feng1 Ri4 Xia4" :-0

No moral problem exists under certain circumstances.

I really can't answer your question by giving your an obscure response.
It is a ten-day topic. But my purpose is not "to gain for myself BY 
WHATEVER MEANS." 

>Chinese with different opinions?

The article of 68692 by another netter can give you a hint. People should
get what they deserve to get. My underlined statements above also gave you
a SATISFACTORY answer. :-) Your accuse of me is too wide to be anything
again, I have no difficulty blaming those people who deserve to be blamed.
