Morality question

Yeah, you probably hear this one a lot.

You can either choose to die yourself, or have 10 random people die.

I think if I could do it without thinking about it, I would choose to live. If I saw what had happened to those families though, I would feel really terrible.

 

The odds are that you woudlnt feel good about killing yourself instead.. because you would be dead and non-existent.. so obviously living is the best choice.

Everything within life is pointless when we are dead.. so we may as well live.

I'd probably save my self over a million people.

 

random people, I dont even have to think twice.

Im evil

 

Choosing me or 10 people over a different issue though.. would be a different matter... but when it comes to death.. the individual is sovereign.

 

same here. I'm almost never happy and don't enjoy life as much as I keep telling myself to, but what can I say?

 

now that I thikn about it. I'd kill a billion people to keep me alive. Even If I had to kill them.

Im fucked but It wouldnt make me feel bad if i had to choose life or death...well i'd feel bad later but it's better than being dead.

 

big surprise!

 

that i'm not the kind and all loving person you thought i was?

 

How is it better than being dead if know one knows what it's like to be dead?
It could be a wonderful thing.

 

I would take my own life. I would never kill a person, even if it means i get to live. I just don't think its right.

 

Existence is absurd, one cannot find the meaning of existence. We're constantly in change trying to define our own, but that is the beauty of existence, that it's absurd. The essence of us all has to be absurd, if it had meaning, why would there be existence in the first place? We wouldn't have to live the struggle to identify our Selves. It'd be hypocritical to think I know more than anyone else and thus letting myself die because I think others' existence are more worthy than mine, because of course, it's completely false. Nobody's existence is more well-defined that anybody else's. Although, on the same line, it'd be hypocritical to let others die because we're all on the same boat. So what do I do? We all die, or we all live. To decide otherwise is to give illusionary meaning to existence, and that is like religion in government.

 

Like you say.. we can't weigh up whos life is worth more than others.. we can't even say that life is important.. all we do know is that death takes us to another place.. (or no place at all).. so seeing as i am guaranteed death eventually anyway.. and my life isn't necessarily worth less than any amount of people.. i'd prefer to experience as much of life as i can.. before i inevitably die anyway.. than worry about the absurd morality of feeling guilty about the death of other people in place of mine.

 

rofl

 

Ehh, im suicidal anyway, so id rather die then have one other person die. I dont enjoy life, so i might as well give them the opportunity.

 

My life is so pointless and I am angst riddled bitch who is SOOO depressed so yeah I would choose to die.

 

I would choose to die.

 

If I had to kill them myself, I'd die, because I don't have the balls to kill ten people.

But if I never had to see or deal with them, I'd probably save myself.

 

the only way you can get ahead in life is by taking risks, you do not get anywhere by being a coward

 

I would choose to die because I couldn't live with the guilt of killing 10 people.

 

as long as i can kill them personally
