life would be shit without any other people anyway, I'd rather die than be forever alone.

I'd chose to save the other billions of people over my own life, if for no other reason that I know my conscience would torture me for the rest of my life if I got every freakin' person on the planet killed.

Guilt is a *****...

Well, considering I generally despise the human race as a whole and all... I'd chose to end them all. Sure, I'd probably kill myself after as well, considering I've just killed of the few people I like. Still, I'd rather the human race ended than it continuing. Ergo, I kill them and then commit suicide, not having to live with having killed my (barely handful of) friends. Problem solved. ^^

I would kill humanity, not to actively save myself, but simply because I believe it to be the better option.
In fact, I am sacrificing my own chance at sweet oblivion to save everyone else by putting them out of their misery, even if they don't recognise it.

I actually can't believe almost 20% of the people who voted would kill everybody else on this planet for the sake of themselves. To me this seems disgusting....
No, your option to save them is disguising. How can you possibly justify the continuation of greed, hate, murder, exploitation, disease, overpopulation, starvation, corruption, and just overall suffering?

The only humane thing to do is to let them all die, and then live the rest of your life knowing that you solved all of those terrible problems.

I really hope you're joking or trolling, when you consider all of the beauty and love in this world those problems pale, better to live a flawed existence than not at all.

Haf wife and child. Would have to pick sacrifice.

Were it not for that, I'd save myself and claim all the cheesecake in the world for myself. Nom nom nom.

I'd keep myself alive at any cost. Dying sucks. And if I'm dead, it really doesn't matter (to me) what happens to the rest of existence.
Also: Subjective idealism [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_idealism]

Selfish and proud of it!

I may be a misanthrope, but having absolutely nobody to talk to or even chat online with, and nobody to make me games or release Minecraft updates would really crappy. So I choose myself.

It's a stupid question, we die either way.

No single human can survive, the only difference between the two options would be death now, or death in two weeks, when the clean water runs out.

You or 5% of the human race would be a question demanding more thought.
When I made my opinion, I wasn't thinking in terms of 'whatever would be better for the human race.' I was thinking that it would be better to live than die, even if your life has major problems. Also, surviving wouldn't be THAT hard. Clean water wouldn't run out fast, and you could get water out of a stream of fresh water. There are also heaps of liquids (enough to last a lifetime easily) in the countless stores around. I don't know about you, but I know many places where there are streams of fresh water. You could hunt for food if it became contaminated (which it wouldn't for AGES), by going into peoples houses or a gun store and getting a gun to shoot animals. Surviving isn't as hard as you say and frankly, two weeks is an absurd limit. You could almost live that long by eating or drinking nothing. Also, I don't know why people are talking about evolution as if doing whats best for the human race is not a choice. We are not a single entity.

I would Sacrifice myself for the human race simply because if I chose myself to live then I would be the last living human on the planet. How fucking boring would that be.
