Would you kill one person...

Is this a trick question?

Anybody who answers "Yes" already failed...

What if the answer was yes? And those who answered no failed?

Well if a person is willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of 5 people then ok sure. They want to do something honorable. But if you mean by force-ably take someone's life in order to replace 5 lives then probably not a likely thing to be proud of.

This is a great question and truly for many of us.

I think the best answer would be based on what it is being tested for. There will be no right or wrong answer though.

If I take the test for:

For political career – yes
For medical career – no
For military purpose – yes
For regular job – no
Just for myself – no
For standard of living – no

Sometimes a decision is made not by the standard of living but for the purpose of it is being made for.

That’s why many diseases are man made and they are made for a purpose.
