What with climate change and the like, there is the underlining concern of, mass migration, and the ramifications that would go along with that.
However, trying, to steer as clear as possible, from the dooms day, end of the world stuff, my question to you is, would you be in support, of culling, a significant percentage of the world population, in the interests of preserving a more sustainable number?
Be it through conquest of what’s left, sitting idly by while hundreds of millions die, or even, letting us fight among ourselves until the population goes down.
Am just curious as to the state of mind you all have. Regardless if you think it’s a completely impossible scenario, or, that I am hyping it up, if it did indeed happen, what would your thoughts on the matter be?
I think its a particular telling question in that, say, from a Christian perspective, I would ASSUME, the gut reaction would be, no we must help as many as we can. But then, isn’t that a death sentence to those who may be able to survive? From a secular position, do you value your fellow mans life as much as your own when it REALLY matters?
And, on a similar note, does morality exist when society breaks down and our instinct to survive takes hold?
Thoughts are much appreciated
I know ATG did a thread about this http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=106244, but, this is specifically a poll with opinions accompanying it hopefully.
Btw, those of you looking for the alusive:
It will never happen (and I will be dead in 2142) option. I left it out in the interests of getting a better poll. I really just want to see what side you sit on and your justification for that.
Thanks
