[M.D. Holloway]

All these arguments are valid if you’re setting up a society. Your not. You have to have the thought that help is on the way and at some point you will be saved. Without that thought pattern you end up developing a social model that will take generations to sort out - it ain't happening. Even if some of you survive the guilt and remorse you will have will be worse then death.

Say you start throwing the fatties, the old and the hurt over the side. And even some folks who are plenty healthy decide to give up the ghost (which will never happen BTW) take a powder and expire. And then the unthinkable happens...you get saved. You just sent a bunch of folks to their deaths because in your infinite wisdom you played God. Nice going! Thanks for killing my Grampy and fat Uncle Ned!
