If you have to kill someone - if you have to - is it somehow better to do it clean with a bullet through the head? Is it somehow worse to chop them up with an axe? And what if you have to kill ten, or a hundred, or a thousand? What if in doing it, you save a thousand or spare ten? What if you save yourself? What is the measure of a man, or of his murder? By what insane calculus can we answer questions like these?

Should we even try?

Nice try quoting Far Cry 2, but I think shallow pseudo-philosophy from video games belongs in /v/

>implying the same questions don't come straight from strict philosophy

You're a noob.

Only suffering is bad, death isn't. So minimising the amount of suffering in the world is best.

The best way to do this is to kill painlessly, but even killing people in a sloppy, nasty way is better than not killing at all.

Ignore and report pseudo-intellect threads.

Thanks.
