    Am I supposed to feel bad?

    I played as a total asshole in KotoR 1 & 2, and it was always awesome. The only thing was... I could never pick the dark side stuff when talking to T3-M4 for some reason.. Loved HK's commentaries though.. Ahh the wonders of the origins of the word "meatbag"...

    Curing all diseases: an ethical problem

    We took humans out of the evolving equation for the most part, since we terraform, we shape everything around us so it can benefit us more - in itself making ourselves weaker to change (since we keep changing the other stuff around us instead of ourselves!). It kind of makes your argument...

    Curing all diseases: an ethical problem

    But would that be effective enough? A media campaign usually has some effect, noticable enough, but could it actually solve the problem? I think not.

    Curing all diseases: an ethical problem

    The question isn't, like so many threads before me, "if you had a cure what would you do with it". The question is: "You have a cure, it's been given to the world, doesn't this create more problems than it solves?"

    Curing all diseases: an ethical problem

    You have a valid point, but also consider the improved living standards the now third world countries will have: they will initially have a lot of children who would otherwise die of various diseases. Those children would grow up and have children of their own, etc. In Holland, for example, it...

    Curing all diseases: an ethical problem

    I'm not saying that we shouldn't use the cure, as so many threads before have suggested. We should definitely use the cure. I'm not going to let anyone die, but the problem will be that because so many people will no longer die of diseases, there will be a massive burst in population (then...

    Curing all diseases: an ethical problem

    Curing all diseases: an ethical problem

    Hey guys, As I was just commenting, I realised something: say we could cure all diseases. Just stop and think about this for a minute; it would mean that we'd only die of accidents or murder, and dying of old age. This would stress the problems we already have even more, namely the problems...

    Terrorists Target Real-Life Nanotech Researchers

    Isn't that what made the zombies in numerous ways? Saying they found a cure for restoring life's cells, curing all diseases, but turning them into zombies later? or mutated smart apes, or mutating limb-shooting prototype? :p sounds like we got this department filled with enough tales already...
