    You have two ULTIMATLY HORRIFIC choices.......which do you pick?

    Hypothetical: You have 2 horrific choices........

    You have two buttons infront of you-you MUST pick one.

    If you press one button, one person will go through every type of possible suffering, for eternity(past the destruction of the universe, the heat death of the universe, the half-life on protons, intra-galactic blackhole etc.....whatever ends matter)-eternity i.e. forever. The twist is that this is some person who you hold dear-but you dont know who.

    If you press the other button, half the population of the earth instantly and painlessly cease to exist.

    If you press neither button, you yourself get the horrible conseqeunces of the first button done to yourself........

    What do you do?


    Edit: You cant procrastinate, after 24 hours if you dont decide you get the results of button 1 on yourself.

        That would result in 1/4th the population of the world being left(1*.5*.5)

          I will push button 1, after making sure it will happen to the thread starter.

              For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

                    uh, i may be evil, but button two doesn't sound that horrific, they will all die eventually, and probably not painlessly

                      I would gladly choose button 2. The Earth is way over-populated.

                        Button two. We have a hard time feeding everyone anyway.

                          button 1... one life's suffering is nothing compared to the evaporation of 3 billion and the great mourning of the surviving 3 billion for the loss of half their loved ones


                          thanks

                              Button 1: Infinite suffering
                              Button 2: 0 suffering
                              Button 3: Infinite suffering

                              I wonder what I should choose...
