Innocent Life
Would you kill an innocent life to save millions of people?
I ask this question. Should a person chosen at random to die in exchange for a world without the disease far outweigh the needs of a minority? Therefore, it is false, even for a single innocent life is sacrificed to save many? What you think?
I think it's a statistical problem. Most of us require the death, an amount that a quarter of the population to save the killing (eg 250,000 to 1 million dead). Nothing but think it is odd that the average person. Always select few over the majority. Survival is the main objective of all humans.
