5 :
Where is this button?
6 :
No. HIV is only dangerous to an uneducated population who doesn't know about safe sex.
7 :
yes and no it depends if i knew anyone with that disease
8 :
No not much we can do for the future generation anyway.
9 :
no... mankind needs disease to limit the population... humans are taking over the earth ruining nature and destroying animals.... what makes us think we deserve it more than them?
10 :
I thought about it a few months ago, but then realized they are too many...
11 :
No, because then over 40 million people would die.
12 :
pointless cuz there will always be something there to destroy ppl. otherwise, the earth would become way overcrowded.
13 :
no. many people have lived successful lives with HIV/AIDS and they have a right to live their lives. in most cases, the person constracts or is born with it so that makes it more unfair. knowing it would save future generations, i just couldn't do it because then millions of dollars would have been wasted in the search for a cure
14 :
No way. I could never kill any living thing, and it's not their fault that they have it. What if it was someone's grandmother, and she got it from a blood transfusion? Or a poor little 9-year-old who was raped? I'd much rather help to find a cure and teach people to practice safe sex.
15 :
Dumb question, even for psychology... It wouldn't matter, because another plague would be waiting to take it's place
16 :
Question of morals. Just like in swordfish, kill innocent to save people. I have to say no, not just for obvious reasons, but, not trying to sound like I'm evil or anything but diseases are a need part of existence. I would see it as a control of overpopulation.
