Save your parents or 1000 strangers?

Question

Would you save your parents from dieing if it meant letting 1000 strangers die instead?

Answer 1

Tough question.  Without hesitation, I would readily and happily give my life to save either parent.  And since I cannot unequivocably say that for the 1000 strangers without knowing more details (are they terrorists, convicts, cultists, terminally ill, etc) I guess the immediate answer to your question is that my parents would be my choice.

Answer 2

This is a great question. No matter what your answer is it seems selfish. If you save the 1000 you let the people who gave birth to you and raise you die. If you save your parents you let 1000 people die for just two poeple in your life. When 1000 familys would be devastated. Well my answer would be. I would find a loop hole and take my life for my parents and those people. But if I really had to choose. I waould probally choose my parents.
