I would say no to scenario one. I like to believe I would say no to scenario two (as I don't want to be responsible for the death of the human race and the Children of Man scenario that will inevitably result)... but, I know -- beyond a shadow of a doubt -- that someone else would take that money.

And then we get to the Children of Man scenario anyway.

So, I am... conflicted on the second scenario.

I would say no just so it didn't weigh on my conscience. Hopefully all of the 999 others would say no too.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
--S. Huntington

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.
