I am sure you have seen this in many movies or shows as a plot , I saw this on the spinoff of Buffy the Vampire Slayer called ANGEL. But in the last season the basic story was about this woman named jasmine, who was the most perfect human being I guess and she was treated like God. As soon as she became famous she started making miracles happen, suddenly she eliminated all evil in the world, cured all diseases, stopped poverty, etc. she basically made the world perfect. But the catch was that she killed hundreds of people a day.I forgot but i think Angel kills Jasmine because she was killing perfectly innocent people, but those people accepted it and died for the rest of the world.
If we ever had a situation where one person made the world perfect but in return that person killed a hundred or so random people a day in place of the perfection they had brought upon the world, would you be against it or not? explain, if you are against or with it. would you die for the perfection of the world? |

I LOVE ATS. Anywho.. you have to factor in the bit about them no longer having free will, too. That's also part of the reason Angel (well, initially Fred) killed Jasmine. No one in that world had their own free will - that's why those people accepted dying at her hands.

Wait, didn't Connor kill Jasmine? He like punched her in the back of her head then it came out her mouth. Or something like that. But yeah, Connor killed her... |

But yeah, Connor killed her... Yeah, my bad.  Now I remember. How could I forget one of the greatest deaths in the Jossverse ever!  B-b-b-but Fred was onto the Jasmine thing initially! Without her, well, someone else would've figured it out.. but still.
