Ideally' date=' yes, but who knows if I'm going to live up to it?

True. I also happen to be a hopeless coward, and I fear that my cowardice would probably overpower my selfishness.

I'm the other way around; quite selfish, you know?

 

I'm very selfish. I'm just even more cowardly.

Got to take big risks to make big money, got to have guts for that.

No.

 

There's plenty more fish in the sea. Plus' date=' if they loved you, I'm sure they wouldn't want you to die for them. People get so stupid about love. They repeat all this rubbish about "one true partner", when that really isn't true. The population of the world is 6.8 billion. Do you honestly think, in all that 6.8 billion, there is only one person you could ever love?

^I totally agree with this dude.

 

I'd try to save the one I love without getting injured, I might die while saving her, but I wouldn't do something as stupid like dying for her if I was given the option to walk away with my life.

Yes. I would give my life up for anyone. I feel that other's lives are more valuable than our own.

 

I hope you are speaking for yourself when you say' date=' 'our own.'

[/quote']

That depends on whether or not you're illiterate and think that "our" describes only one person.

 

So you're saying someone else's life is more important than mine too?

Actually I'm saying that everybody's lives are neutral.

 

My life is more important than yours; your life is more important than mine. etc.

...love is a emotion which cannot be explained with knollige....

 

That one is going into my Great Ditchionary of Silly Words.

 

My answer on the thread depends. On my age - and the person where it is about. I must insanely love someone to give my life for her.

But use simple logic, and you'll understand that it's almost impossible for her to survive if the situation make you do not.

Thing is, just as Crab pointed out, if you're selfish, you'll never allow yourself to break mentally (and believe me, you WILL be broken mentally in a case you let her die.), and instead, you make others do so.

 

In either case it sucks to be you =P

I suppose if whomever I loved was of greater value than me, ie, she was a leading scientist in AIDS research and is close to a break-through, and I'm just some random guy, I would save her, because she has the opportunity to aid humanity more than I. Otherwise, no. Love just doesn't cut the cake.

Stop trying to philanthropic and philosophical and unemotional at the same time.

 

You're really bad at it.

No. Aiding humanity so for n00bs. The population's too big already. Instead, I would save a person who was going to make a genocide virus to thin out the herd.

As a secular humanist, I wouldn't do anything directly detrimental to society. Alright, a better example. She isn't looking for a cure to AIDS, she is researching how to produce cheaper and more effective contraception pills that would be widely available. Satisfied? Cuts down on the population increase without directly killing anybody.

 

But anyway, the point is, if we were both two equal human beings, no, I wouldn't.
