Aressar posted...visualboy2003 posted...Aressar posted...visualboy2003 posted...but you don't wanna kill those 12,000 if one of them is your loved one. think about it. we human lives matter much more than cat lives. Actually, your reasoning is selfish if you're making the choice primarily based on the possibility a loved one is among those 12,000. Sacrificing all cats would not only affect cats, but negatively affect humanity as a whole and many other species as well, due to the heavy impact on the ecosystem because an entire species has suddenly been completely removed. Whether you're doing this for your loved ones, humanity or felinity, more lives are ultimately saved by sacrificing the 12,000 humans instead of all cats. Even with the loved-ones reasoning, chances are more loved ones end up dead/affected if you sacrifice the cats. --- One time, CE triggered me so hard with their objectively wrong opinions that I accidentally punched myself in the balls. ...

Yeah they can, but then the rats swarm right back in because they breed like crazy. Already mentioned that tigers would not stop the insane rat explosion. Also TC never mentioned who the 12,000 would even be. By sheer chance it could be like 12,000 criminals or something along those lines. --- Awz od fiis ... Copied to Clipboard!

Kill the people easy. First the logical reason; 12,000 people will have a much lower impact over all than killing off every single cat. Secondly, cats are amazing animals and I wouldn't want to live without them.

jumi posted...visualboy2003 posted...jumi posted...600 million cats, or 12000 humans? No, it's not. It's nice that you think 'science will find a way to solve that within a few years' but if it were as simple as that, literally all of society's problems would be solved by now. Scientists might indeed look into it, but a permanent and stable solution will definitely take more than a few years, since there are an enormous amount of factors to take into account when interfering with the ecosystem in this manner. During that time, many, many people would be negatively affected by the consequences (i.e. disease), resulting in a lot more human casualties than 12,000. Either choice has a chance of affecting your loved ones. The sacrifice-all-cats choice simply brings a significantly higher chance of (many more) loved ones dying. You're killing people either way: either 12,000 or many more. That's what it comes down to. --- One time, CE triggered me so hard with their objectively wrong opinions that I accidentally punched myself in the balls. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Thompson posted...12,000 people is a recoverable loss, but losing an entire species, especially one as iconic and crucial as cats, is not. I'd be certainly upset if my entire family were among the 12,000, but as hard as it would be to accept, I have to understand that the survival of an entire species is more important than losing a fraction of a species. Afterall, we could apply the same dilemma to any other species and see how willing we are to put humans above animals, can't we? How many humans are dogs worth? 30,000? How about cattle, horses, and chickens? Put those against, I dunno, 250,000 people. Yeah, wipe out a large city, or the means of millions upon millions of people to make their daily living. I'm sure the latter will have far more severe repercussions that aren't immediately obvious, but will ultimately lead to more than 250,000 deaths, not to mention global economic and societal collapse. The loss of cats will not cause an impact as severe, but their disappearance will undoubtly have consequences that'll eclipse 12,000 deaths. --- Sigs are rather pointless, except if it's to showcase animation and images. ...

Mosquitoes may annoy you, sure, but they're also a food source for several animals. Remove that food source, and those animals will suffer, maybe even die out. And then that means another animal who used those as animals as food will suffer, et cetera. Eventually, it will be us who will suffer.
