For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio -
0 suffering for who?
Half the children of the world will be asking, "Mommy where did my daddy and sister go?"
that's ****ing suffering... you people are all idiots to not realize the full implications of having half the population vanish... thats people's parents, siblings, and friends vanishing..."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

well let's see...
3 billion survivors mourning for let's say 2 years... thats 6 billion years worth of suffering...
true, not eternity... unless you assume eternity ends when the universe ends which might happen within 6 billion years"Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

I'd press button two twice.

C'mon you know you will push either the first or second button. My consience would be wreck for the rest of my life, but I would push it
Do we get to choose who get's on the receiving end of button one? If it is chosen randomly, then it could still be you...better press the second one to be sure
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

and the immense loss of manpower and brainpower would have wide-spread repercussions...
frankly, i cant see how anyone would ever pick button two... one life verses billions..."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

Well the thread started said the consequences of button 1 would go on past the end of universe, he said the suffering would go on forever(eternity by definition does not end). So you are still comparing infinite suffering to finite suffering.Originally posted by Albert Speer

I would break open the machine and jam its gears with Vesayen's head. Crisis averted. Now it is snack time. My will be done.Comment

Eternal suffering is much worse than simple death.

WHAT THE HELL?
Am I the only one here who would rather have one person suffer than billions... and frankly, just taking away one's life is suffering... imagine all the **** you plan to do in your life and have it just vanish... true you wouldnt know anything cause you'd be dead but still... such loss...

Or I'd ask for official promise that if I push button number 1 that it will happen, making someone give signature, then I'd want to sign it too, asking for another working pen and then quickly putting them into my nose and slamming my head to the table and die right there before pushing any buttons.In da butt.

If the eternal suffering involved includes being subjected to inane hypothetical moral choices with no real favorable answer, then I say, away go the 3 billion!Tutto nel mondo è burlaComment

I don't understand why my "would you rather have a railroad spike shoved through your left eye or your right" poll was closed, seeing as how Vesayen seems to start a new (equivalent) poll every day. Double standard!
