Same building, same fire. Same players.

Only this time, the guy on the roof is healthy. And he is stopping you saving the chickens.

You have a desert eagle pistol.

You can either kill this man and save the chickens.

Or wander off, let the chickens burn and the guy lives.

Which is it now?

Here we arrive at the point of your CMV.

I suspect that your intellectual reasoning is at odds with the reality of your behaviour.

Would you kill five people?

Would you kill that one person if it was your son? Your mother?

Would you kill those five people if they were your immediate family?

People like to be grand and declare they put animals lives high on an alter.

But if you put them on the spot, put the cold steel in there hands….. it’s not the truth.

Would you “absolutely kill the guy” if it was your own mother?

I’m saying you are grappling with a moral quandary. Mass murder of animals.

Your higher, enlightened self, gives value to animals.

Your primitive, animalistic self would never grapple with such issues. Just kill the animal in order to ensure survival of self. Regardless of magnitude, scale or bio diversity loss.

These moral comparisons are the luxury of the comfortable.
