I was wondering what you guys would have done, unfortunately I couldn't answer that question, and that is the main reason I made the poll... [thumb]
Yours truthfully

Yeah, it would be nice, indeed [lol] .Of course I would rather find a solution where both me and the one/idea that I love would be able to continue existing

I am very suspicious of reasoning that would lead one to "give one's life for an idea". The patriotic soldiers of the Old South gave their lives for what they believed was a noble cause. So did the naive Germans defending Hitler in WWII. We see Islam fanatics becoming suicide bombers today.

elrond, won't it be hard to just die for anything you love? I mean, after all- nothing comes for your good in this, it's not like you shall have a memory of it, a way to be proud of what you've done...

Heh, thats how I feel sometimes about locking myself up in a lab every day with all that sunshine 'n gals out there...Sisyphus, Prometheus, or Job. Imagine enduring the torture and suffering and facing down the loss of all life's meaning and hope.

Personally- definitely! Everything is better than that terrible oblivion, that horrible nothing which death "bestows". I really mean ANYTHING is better than this- the self-teaching possibility even in sorrowful life is a great part of the hope and gives reason to live. For as long as the *self* lives- there is a piece of a singular knowledge which worth the preservation.could you all still find the courage to endure being alive?
Heh, no such thing in my opinion...100%

So, what you're saying Infernity is that you'd only give your life for a male clone of yourself .1. love,
2. trust,
3. know for number-which-aspires-to-one-hundred-per-cent sure that he is seeing everything the same way I do (at least all of what I managed to see in him) which means-
4. will undertake to do my goals, since this is what he would have done anyway since these are his goals too,
5. that disagreement between us is nil...

No, it does not.Does that mean I have low self-esteem?
I can tell you have never experienced such thing then.I just would hate to have to talk about the same thing all the time...
You wouldn't know for 100% because there's no such thing. And that also means you are effected by prejudices and stigmas.If it was a 100% certain that whatever I had to do would result in my death or someone I love, well... emotionally, I would say yes, as I feel it would be so painful to know I willingly accepted someone elses death over mine combined with the grief and loss of losing the person I loved.
That's great, so am II tend to rely on my reasoning more then my emotional side

Wouldn't you? ha!I wouldn't be so quick to infer what has happened in my life.
Heh well I've never seen something which is 100% , I realized what you meant, I just tend to think that the 100% never was...I didn't say my reaction was 100% certain. I hypothesized that if the scenario was (100% certain), I might act in a way.
Oh well, no one has free will either.And no one is free from prejudice and stigmas.
Oh, umm what did you say?, I didn't pay attention... [lol] just kidding heh. What makes you think that? I suppose I am not human in that case since I suppose I can do that... [huh]If there is one thing humans can't do, it's not pay attention...

Spending eternity with someone that was exactly like me and shared my same goals is my idea of true torment. Hrm... Does that mean I have low self-esteem?
I just would hate to have to talk about the same thing all the time...

Oh gee many thanks to Laz- not anymore.(Susma)
This is a thread in Free Speech forum. So I should not feel insecure that the powers here in this IOF (ImmInst Org Forum) might do some scissoring intervention of my words here.
