You should all be fucking ashamed of yourselves.
for honesty?
Being honest is good, but valuing your life over the millions that die from cancer yearly... :-S
I believe the assumptions of the question comes into suspect here. Why is it that my death alone would cause the cure to cancer? Am I supposed to take this assumption on faith? A ridiculous question deserves ridiculous answers. In reality I can't ever envision a situation where my death is going to result in the cure for caner.
But sure... lets play along with the absurd scenario. Can you really fault a man who is not willing to sacrifice his life for something he has not been directly touched by? It's not even that I havent had a family member, but I don't even know a friend or friends relative that has been affected by cancer. I am not saying that is an excuse, but it defiantly puts one at a reach for understanding.
And when I have gone to walk-a-thons, all I ever hear is people who got cancer, went through chemo, and had the cancer go into remission. Stories like that don't do much to build up my sympathy. If I was diagnosed with cancer tomorrow, I really wouldnt be all that concerned. I'd be like "so... uhhh... Chemo's gonna suck right, but I'll live?". Maybe I am being ignornant, but that is my current view of cancer and I'd be lying if I said I'd give my life to cure it.

I guess here's where we diverge. I totally agree there is no reasonable scenario where my death will cure cancer, but the question isn't reasonable. If I'm told that I am the only reason that people get cancer, and if my life were to end, cancer would end as well, I wouldn't hesitate. I feel as if I am directly touched by cancer because I read stories about the pain, suffering and anguish that it causes. I know it is the second greatest cause of death in the United States. I know that it takes people young and old, rich and poor. I just couldn't willingly allow that to continue.

we probably don't diverge as much as you think. I am a reasonable person and possibly might change my mind if I was more educated on the topic. In reality I just don't have a lot of exposure and have a difficult time relating.
But I've seen Armageddon like a dozen times... and every time I watch that movie, I imagine myself in The Willis's shoes, and I push that button to save humanity.

I wish I was a quarter of the man Bruce Willis was in that movie.
I concur. I think the fact that it's such an absurd situation that it makes it a lot easier to be...how should I put this "diplomatically"...a dick...

About a decade ago I joined a group in the formation of The Church of Willis. Through divine intervention we produced The Book of Willis which chronicled how The Willis came to this planet and died on that asteroid for our sins. Somewhere I have a picture of where I took a pilgrimage to holy land and placed my hand in his hand print. Truly the Willis is great.

the Fonz and other false gods have nothing on The Willis. This was clearly told in the Book of Die Hard, chapter 3 verse 12 where it is written, "When Thy enemies attempt to smite you, you shall hold them off a building and let go. Yippie Ki Aye Mother FUCKER". end quote. Praise Willis.
