    I would also add that we are not a threat by number 3.

    Judging by the host's emphasis on discussion, I would also conclude that our answers need to be fairly descriptive, or at least elegantly written. No 5 word sentences posing as an answer.

    Yes, that was just a short list to show the chosen alternatives. Darth Feather have to add some more arguments when he delivers the answers.

    This wasn't particularly directed at you, my friend I just noticed the trend and thought it should be addressed.

    Onward to victory!

    1. We should kill one to save five, unless the five are cripples and thus drags on society.
    2. Steal the medicine, life is too precious to set a value on.
    3. See question 2, life is precious.

    I'm going to go with elect: edse, he seems to have a solid head on his shoulders.

    As for my responses to the moral questions;

    1) Ideally we would find a way that all 6 would be able to live, however since this seems to be out of reach I would say kill 1 to save 5. If I were the one I would think of no better way to go out than by saving others

    2) I would steal the meds in a heartbeat, unless the person I was stealing the meds for did not want the meds.

    3) In this post-apocalyptic world we must find a way to work together for the common good.
