11.1)種瓜得瓜(理論)-- 2026.08.01
「種瓜得瓜」比喻種什麼收什麼,做了什麼事,就會得到什麼樣的結果。強調「因果關係」與「天道酬勤」。無論是在工作、學習或為人處世上,付出多少努力或善行,就會有相應的回報或後果。原為佛教用語,見於《涅槃經》,意指種瓜得瓜,種李得李,喻指因果報應。

馮夢龍(1574—1646):喻世明言.卷二九.32.《月明和尚度柳翠》
這日正值柳翠西湖上游耍剛回,聽得化緣和尚聲口不俗,便教丫鬟喚入中堂,問道:「師父,你有何本事,來此化緣?」
法空長老道:「貧僧沒甚本事,只會說些因果。」
柳翠問道:「何為因果?
法空長老道:「前為因,後為果;作者為因,受者為果。假如種瓜得瓜,種豆得豆,種是因,得是果。不因種下,怎得收成?好因得好果,惡因得惡果。所以說:要知前世因,今生受者是;要知後世因,今生作者是。」

雙果律 PRINCIPLE OF DOUBLE EFFECT - 神學辭典

The principle of double effect justifies actions that cause a foreseen bad side effect (e.g., pain, death) while aiming for a good goal, provided the harm is unintended, proportionate, and not the means to the good end. Examples include administering high-dose pain medication that hastens death, performing life-saving surgeries during pregnancy, and tactical military strikes.  Reddit  +4
Key examples of the principle of double effect include:
Palliative Care/Pain Relief: A doctor administers a high dose of morphine to a terminal patient to manage severe pain, knowing this may accelerate the patient's death. The action is justified because the intention is to alleviate pain, not cause death.
Surgery During Pregnancy: A doctor removes a cancerous uterus to save a pregnant woman's life, which results in the unintended, foreseen death of the fetus. The intent is to save the mother, not kill the fetus.
Tactical Bombing in War: A military force targets an enemy munitions depot, knowing that civilian casualties may occur nearby. The action is permissible because the goal is destroying the target, not killing civilians. Self-Defense: A person uses lethal force to defend themselves from a mortal threat, intending to stop the attacker rather than kill them. The attacker's death is a foreseen but unintended consequence.
Trolley Problem: A bystander flips a switch to divert a runaway trolley away from five people, causing it to kill one person on a side track. The intention is to save the five, not kill the one.

Conditions for the Principle to Apply
According to Wikipedia and other sources, for an action to be considered permissible under this principle, it must meet several criteria: 
Wikipedia  +1 The action itself must be good or morally neutral.
The agent must intend only the good effect, not the evil one.
The evil effect cannot be the means to the good effect.
There must be a proportionally grave reason for permitting the evil effect.
