    If this is one of those "what if's" that has no real basis in reality? IE: the logic is gone bye bye and it's just a matter of x and y? Yep. Sure.

Ironically enough its in places like that where innocent people are well...being murdered.
    parts of the world?

    theres plenty of parts in our own country where hunger is a problem. Id like to see us stop whipping out the big american wallet to help other nations when disasters occur there and rather help our own when we suffer them and take care of our own before shipping out help to other countries

    Why oh why are the threads around here becoming Poo threads lately?


    *sigh*



    I dunno. I took the question as something more like "if you killed someone, suddenly all world hunger would stop. Would you do it?"


    I really didn't try to read into this more than what was originally offered up.

    Speaking for myself at least, it's difficult to condone homicide or world starvation without an explanation.

    If you could stop this culture from killing the world by killing this culture, would you do it?

    Let me clarify: It's possible that I definitely might or might not, maybe.

    Some of the most effortlessly beautiful, kind, intelligent, successful, motivated, driven and ridiculously hilarious women that I have ever met have been dancers. I've met the best friends that I've ever had in this industry.

    A closed section of this forum is Political Poo. It'd get a lot of threads about current events and such that got very.... heated. When threads nowadays get headin in that direction, some of us are reminded of the old times

    I don't have the heart or the set of balls to do that. Plus I believe it is not my right to take anyone's life away, unless that motherfucker is out to get me. lol.

    Yes, done and done. Seems to only happen in sci-fi movies. For example last Transformer's movie, the planet is about to be changed killing billions of humans, by all means go ahead and kill a few of the humans standing in the way.

    no i wouldn't, because "world hunger" is only a small part of the problem. ending world hunger alone wouldn't actually do as much as people think.

    No. I just couldn't do it, nor could I justify it to myself even if I did have the stomach for it.

    I'd offer up myself to be the killed-one if I thought it was for the significant greater good, but in complex systems small changes can lead to huge an unexpected side-effects (more so large changes). In this case no lack of food would almost certainly contribute further to over population, and if it's not food that we run out of as a resource, it will be something else like power, water, medicine, space, etc. It's not really the killing for the greater good that I have trouble with. It's that this is reminiscent of the story of the Genie and the 3 wishes. Presumably all kids have heard this one. If not, the premise is simple. No matter what the poor chump wishes for, there is always some trade-off, some un-anticipated side-effect so that by 3rd wish he invariably ends up asking that he had never made any wishes.

    No...modern antibiotics have given mother nature the ability to kill a hell of a lot more of us with better bugs.

    That and increased ease of travel has exposed us to wider varieties of bugs more rapidly. But yea, antibiotics are an excellent example of trading off one problem for another.

    This is the first time in human history that we have enough food to feed the world. There is no such thing as world hunger anymore. It's what's mine is mine, and you'll never get it. If the "civilized" countries would share their resources, world hunger wouldn't happen. We have enough, more than enough, let's share!
