Character Analysis

Clyde Bruckman, the main character in the X-files Episode. He is a fat, old man who sells insurance and has ability to see people’s future. He uses this ability to help Mulder and the woman to resolve the murder. But, this ability which he calls it as a curse leads him to his suicide? I think his foreknowledge has somehow caused his suicide. For his ability, he can identify and see how a person dies, and he tells the woman that he dies with her on the bed together. And in the earlier, they has already let him believe that he has a special ability to see what exact the future goes, and he was right about the woman’s dead body in the river and that murder’s dead body in a forest. So, I feel he somehow believes that he also should die in the way that he sees in the future. There is a way to accept that his foreknowledge causes his suicide. Actually, there is a possibility that to avoid it. He can just don’t do that and change the consequence, because this is his choice. Nevertheless, he chooses to suicide because he may believe in that. So, I do think he has much of responsibility for his own suicide, because it’s all about himself, it’s his choice to decide whether or not to suicide. All to all, I think he believes in fate. He believes that he’d die in suicide as his fate. So, he thinks in that way, so he chooses in that way. Which the main point I think is he believes in himself, he believes his choice and he believes what he sees. So, his ability lets him to choose suicide.

    The first exploration will be taken from the viewpoint of the one using Kantian Ethical Theory. At first glance, Kantian seems to suggest that this person could not kill him/herself because in Kant 's writings he states that suicide is wrong. The reason for this is because of the maxim given in the act (A), circumstances (C), end (E) format of "(A) I will kill myself, (C) when I am in pain, (E) out of self love."
