Which equally horrible choice would you choose in the following far-fetched scenario? (open minds required)?

Question

We are forewarned that an alien race is coming to earth to enslave us in the most hideous form imaginable. We will be turned into mindless zombies, stripped of every shred of individuality and identity, and worse, our aging process will be halted so that we will exist like this indefinitely. A sort of living-death.

The proof this will happen is absolute. There is no chance of escape, no reprieve, no way to stop it or fight it. When they arrive, you are doomed.

The only option you have is to accept this fate, or commit suicide. The governments of the earth agree that nobody will be forced to suicide, but they highly recommend it to this enslavement.

Which will you choose. Mindless eternity, or killing yourself?
(remember what happens if you commit suicide.)

Answer 1

I would end up enslaved because I wouldn't believe the warning.

Answer 2

With those issues his Bible helps, i could faster worship Zues. Slavery: (Exodus 21:20-21, Leviticus 25:40 4-40 six, Exodus 21:2-6, Exodus 21:7-11, Ephesians 6:5, Luke 12:40 seven-40 8) Genocide: (a million Samuel 15:2-3, Numbers 31:a million-fifty 4, Deuteronomy 20:10-20) Cannabalism: (Leviticus 26:sixteen, Leviticus 26:29, Deuteronomy 28:fifty 3, Deuteronomy 28:fifty seven, Isaiah 9:19-20, Isaiah 40 9:26, Jeremiah 19:9, Ezekiel 5:10, Zechariah 11:9, 2 Kings 6:28-29, Lamentations 4:10, Micah 3:2-3, Ezekiel 24:10-12 ) Human Sacrifice: (Genesis 22:2,10, Judges 11:29-39) Rape: (city Rape - Deuteronomy 22:23-24, usa Rape - Deuteronomy 22:25-27, Of an unbetrothed virgin - Deuteronomy 22:28-29, Of prisoners of conflict - Numbers 31:15-18) Terrorism: (Genesis 35:5, Exodus 23:27, Deuteronomy 2:25, Deuteronomy 4:34, Judges sixteen:27-30, 2 Corinthians 5:11) Demonizing Handicapped human beings: (Exodus 4:11, Leviticus 21:17-23) Being against scientific technology: (Exodus 15:26, James 5:14-15, Psalm 103:2-3, Matthew 9:22, Mark 5:34, Luke 8:40 8, Acts 19:12, 2 Chronicles sixteen:12)

Answer 3

Given the scenario, I'd probably commit suicide.
But: if we're all to be mindless, why would we care about our fate?

I can only assume that when you say "remember what happens if you commit suicide" you're referring to some wrong-headed notion that committing suicide will send you to Hell. Well, that doesn't make sense in your scenario...if nobody dies (and so remains a mindless zombie) then nobody goes to Hell, right?

The notion IS wrong-headed, by the way.

Answer 4

If you think I can only have an open mind by rejecting what is true, then you're foolish. Anyway, suicide isn't an unforgivable sin. You don't automatically go to hell for committing suicide. Catholics believe that unless you confess your sin, you're not forgiven. However, God forgives us for our sins before we commit them. Asking for forgiveness reminds us that we've sinned and gives us a point to begin repentance.

In any case, since aliens probably don't exist (they're only an evolutionary assumption, that if life could evolve here it could evolve somewhere else), I won't have to worry about it. Most importantly, God has stated that this isn't how things will happen, so the question is irrelevant. You should really read the Bible, you'll learn a good bit about God and His plan.

Answer 5

Well since the zombies are mindless and basically being stripped of my humanity is kinda like death than I'd pick becoming a zombie unless there was pain involved...than I'd pick suicide.

Answer 6

Suicide.

Answer 7

Why would there only be two options?

Surely, the governments have defence plans for this type of eventuality. What is the point in all of these nuclear weapons if there not going to help us from this type of thing

Answer 8

That's a tough one. I gotta keep thinking that where there's life, there's hope.

I'd probably stay alive and trust that I'm more ornery than the aliens are counting on.

Answer 9

Forest: How is killing your family any better than you killing yourself?
To answer the question I would try to find a peaceful alien like E.T., if that plan failed then I would kill myself.

Answer 10

I'd wait until the aliens were actually here. If I saw them with my own eyes, and saw them enslave people, then I might kill myself. Or I'd try to go into hiding.
