Another philosophical question..
Theoretical scenario-
The world is coming to an end. There is a ravenous disease spreading around the world that kills within days of infection. There is something special about your family's DNA. It contains the cure, but the cure can't be duplicated. In order to create enough of the cure to cure the world, or what's left of it, they would need to pulverize everyone in your family, literally liquifying them. And you, being the eldest of the family, have to watch every person in your family die a horribly painful death. But, they give you the choice of saving you and your family, or sacrificing them for the good of the world. Essentially, you have two choices:
1. Watch every single member of your family die a slow, painful death. Then, you would have to die that same death yourself, in order to save the world.
2. Refuse to let it happen, and know that you were responsible for killing the ENTIRE world.
What would you do?
