I think a person's ability to rationalize is pretty amazing. Look at the concentration camp guards from Aushwitz. It's not like they were all psychotic freaks. They were able to go from monsters to family men because they actually developed almost multiple personalities to deal with it. It's called doubling I believe. If they can do that, then you can probably live with murder.

C'mon Batty, there are some people in this world that have morals and integrity. Money is the root of all evil. It is. Whether you understand it or not. I have NEVER done something for monetary gain that directly ended the life of another living thing, and I wouldn't kill a person for 50 trillion dollars, I wouldn't be able to live with myself. I'd die slow and miserably.

It boils down to: I'd rather be poor and happy than rich and miserable.

I honestly don't think I could. But there is not much else I can say as you're putting across quite a good argument.

I don't think I'd kill an innocent person for money. Not if they were wheeled into a room right this second and I was just given the chance 'yes or no' and there was no manipulation, no.

I doubt I could live with the knowledge that I had done it, if I had.

I've turned down money on the grounds of principles before, when the consequences would've been much less.

I know I would, I could buy a damn lot of bud with that.

People like you are a detriment to society as a whole, scenario excluded.

I think this matters. If you can give him an OD of morphine or something, I think that's a lot better for all involved than having to beat him to death with a meat tenderizer or something.
