And who is to say that person wasn't a philanthropist with $50 million? Or was on the verge of curing cancer? In order for the act to be justified, you would have to be sure that you could accomplish more alone than the both of you could if you hadn't killed him. Without a crystal ball, you can't put a price on a person's life. It's also a slippery slope: how much is one person's life worth? Myself, no. Golden rule and all that. |
How do you know that the other lives you saved wont be the next person to cure cancer? So you believe in that one life equals the majority?
