what i do know is that david dornin sent us a morality would not on the question
that i'm opposed to lose here
and this one is uh... it has some similarities
new a couple of others but it's really
making a very very personal imagine that one day
but lewis as a kid which i know for many people as is a servant dot in of itself
but let's assume for a second if that happens lewis let's see your kid has a
terrible illness
needs an operation to save his or her life
the operation costs a hundred thousand dollars you have enough money to pay for
the operation and no extra
you're on your way to the hospital doctor pulls you aside and says you know
what
along with your child
there's four others
that will die today
if you don't pay twenty five thousand dollars each
for their operation
what do you do do you save your own child's life or do you save the lives of
four other children you have no emotional attachment to it
whose parents have no resources
and and will die
what he didn but so far
prague wouldn't think about it i wouldn't think twice about will be in a
new so you believe that one white house because i have no emotional attachment
to those other children but think about think about it uh... in the way of
thinking think about the number of people
and the number of families and and and that will be affected the mother number
of people who further down in the family tree
will never exist because four people have to die
instead of one if you could save the lives of three more children with that
money you have
why would he do
because i care more about my own child
that simple
what do you think about louis is responsive i think i agree with louis
but i would do the same thing and i don't think there's a very good moral
question because if anyone would do the at al-mal i can't think of anyone who
who normal parent who wouldn't do the same thing
that's fine for question isn't whether most people would respond the way loses
responding the question is
is it not
more moral
to opt for saving more lives if you can
well-lit selfish for lewis's idea what
hiking save water for
on this day one
you know it is a selfish in a way but
that's what and has some people hate me for saying this but that's what what
were of all
to want to do without bread our own gene
i mean if you say okay maybe less people will exist overall a four thirty
of parents ceased to exist as opposed to one which lets will continue to spread
his cd's at exactly right
that was my family
as a father little more tommy will suffice
all right well you tell me whether you would do the same i'm david patten dot
