But I'm not sure I agree with you about the leader/follower thing. Like I said, I can't imagine myself killing the baby. But I'm not a follower. I think I've demonstrated that. ;D But I'm not a leader either. I'm an individual.

That baby question was the WORST of them! God, what a horrible situation! I can't see myself smothering a baby either Gary, but if my life depended on it, I would probably be very thankful to the person who did have the courage.
I can't even bear to think about it.
dot-matrix:
As frightened as I would be, if I could not calm the baby, I think I would be more inclined to take the baby and run, hopeing to somehow escape and lead the soliders away from the others. I really feel it would never cross my mind to kill the baby outright. But as you say we really don't know what we would do until we are faced with an impossible horrific situation and our actual lives are on the line. :'(

So Gary, are you saying that you are an anarchist. ;D

I know what it means, thats why I asked you...Its the same as where the people ask if it wont be
a immoral world without religion telling everyone how to be moral...As if it is only fear that guides people.
I understand...It just doesnt work to well in the real world however.
