You know these scenarios where you're asked to kill 1 guy to save 10 people?
    #21855638 - 06/25/15 03:11 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

I was thinking about this scenario.

If you're in a situation where you have to kill a 95 year old in order to save a 5 year, obviously the answer is to kill the 95 year old right?

What if you're asked to kill two 95 year old in order to save that 5 year old kid. You would still kill the two 95 year old right?

What I was wondering is, how many 95 year old do I need to tip that scale over? 10? 20?

Cause let's say the deal is to kill a hundred 95 year old people in order to save 1 kid. You know, why wouldn't you save the kid? At this point letting the 100 year old die to get the kid is starting to save the government serious money right? No more pensions, no more medical to pay and in the end you get a brand new kid full of potential.

So yeah. How many 95 year old would have to be on the line for you to kill the kid in order to save them?

I don't know man , I know some 5 year olds and they are dicks .

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

tough question.

it all depends who the five year old is.

i wouldn't personally murdur someone to save an anonymous kid who statistically will probably grow up to be a shitbag

if it was a relative, or a friends kid, that is different. it all depends

Yeah seriously. The 95-year olds aren't likely to brew up more humans with their twisted reproductive organs. The 5-year olds, on the other hand, probably will squeeze out kids like nuts. If the young ones go, there'll be less people in the end, thus saving you from more trite utilitarian quandaries in the future.

95 year old.  The population control enacted was an evolutionary trait, like an inbuilt program installed in some humans, to ultimately benefit humanity and keep the species alive and evolving, which is the purpose of life.  I personally don't want to have kids; there are enough humans and I don't think me making more will contribute anything good for anyone.

this is unrelated to the thread, but there is a novel about that very thing called the Man in the High Castle.

Amazon is also making a TV series, and the pilot episode is out already. it looks like a great show

in it, the japanese control about 10 of the western states, out to utah and ihado,

the Nazis control the east coast all the way out to missouri, iowa,

and CO, kansas, wyoming nabraska are neutral zones


i can't fucking wait for the first season to be released. the pilot was awesome

Depends if I can ask the 95 year olds first.

And no, if I deny the children, the old people will follow soon.

Yeah I was disappointed in the lack of MP but the single player of NOW is definitely worth it if it's on sale .

I'm thinking of getting it, but it will be on Xbox 360, and apparently it comes with heaps of discs and you have to install at least 10gb.  I don't think I have a 10gb hard drive in the xbox.

What if the 5 year old had Sickle Cell Disease and was gonna die at age 10 but the 95 year old would live to be 115?

I like Wolfenstein.

I would be happy to wipe every 95 year old off the planet to save a 5 year old.

Hell I would let the 5 year old die too if I had the chance. Can we just kill everyone involved in the situation?

I'd think of it in terms of resources. It takes a looooong time to grow a 95 year old. Doesn't take very long to grow a 5 year old. I could have thousands of 5 year olds in the time it takes me to get one 95 year old, therefore a 95 year old is far more valuable.

Actually, thousands of 5 yr olds are attainable in 1/19 the time it would take for any number of 95 yr olds.

You have to factor in disease and death and what not. Very easy to raise a human to 5, it's quite an achievement to live to 95.

Technically speaking, yes. They must have very strong genetics. Who knows what fucked up genetics that haven't presented themselves are hiding in the 5 year olds.

Although as I understand anatomy that's not really practical. We should clone them instead.

I don't think age is much of a consideration in the situation.  I don't think children are necessarily more valuable than adults.  In a society that has convinced itself it has reversed the order of nature, the ultimate failure of that society is the death of a child.  We couldn't protect a child in a world we created.  So we react with shock because it throws our own collective societal failure, and the vulnerability of our world, right in our faces.  Throw all that out the window and you're left with two soggy boxes of flesh, one with potential fulfilled and another with potential unfulfilled.  Neither is more valuable in the scenario.  So the answer isn't obvious from the start, to me anyway.

I guess it's because a 95 year will likely die very soon anyway.  A higher chance to die very soon than a 5 year old. About 110 is the oldest person I've ever heard of.  I pooped ma pants.
