They're Both Drowning and You Can Save Only One -- Your Dog or a Stranger?

It's a proven fact that increasing the number of abortions directly decreases the amount of murders and violent crimes. What's that mean? A lot of humans are pure trash.
Also, they way you're carrying on, I hope you send 3/4 your income to charities in 3rd world countries.
It also decreases the number of great doctors, scientists, inventors, etc... that help move the human race forward...but you wouldn't want to mention that would you.
No, I generally don't give to charities involved in 3rd world countries....I just don't trust them to handle my money and do with it what they say they will. I give in my own local community where I see a need, such as helping a local family out, etc...
Yep this is probably the case.. I consider my dog my family fucking with family is not a good thing..
The same thing if you do not have children, before I had a kid I could not see the point.
I don't think it's the case at all. There are plenty of dog owners capable of rational thought who would save the stranger.
Human > Dog
It's really that simple folks. The dog may be "part of your family", but that doesn't morph it into a human. It's still just a dog.
So you're driving yourself crazy wondering why everyone else doesn't behave how you think they should behave by your logic and your qualifications? That's going to be one miserable life you're going to lead.
Try to approach dating with this mentality and you'll be in a mental hospital in no time. Human behavior is based on emotions which can't be justified and are definitely not rational.
I own a dog and have owned dogs. I love my dog, but I am not evil enough to let a human die for my dog.
I understand the love of your dog, I get emotionally distressed when my dog get bugs bothering her in her sleep. But I DON'T LET A HUMAN DIE FOR HER. Even if the human is the type that would let me or another human being die for their dog.
Again, trust me, I don't even imagine that I can change anyone's mind and as said before I KNEW that MOST people in today's world are this way, what a miserable world of people that exist today.
Time for another Noah's Ark type cleansing of the Earth, maybe God will let your dog on the boat and leave you off, lol.
I crack myself up...

Did I say I was driving myself crazy???
No need to worry about dating, I'm married.
Not all human behavior is based on emotion....everyone has emotions,
those that aren't scumbags THINK before acting on those emotions.
Your dog loves and protects you and you are obligated to do the same. Fuck the stranger. They'd more then likely let you die on the spot without a care in the world.
You thinking Humans are more worth saving is just as emotional as most of us thinking our dog is more worth saving. Almost every decision we make is emotion based, even when we often claim it's "rational". Very few things we do or say are actually rational.
Many people here have given you "rational" arguments for why the dog choice is more rational in their opinion - like the dog might save their life one day and protects them at night from buglers. These are thought-out answers. As you can see, "rational" is usually just a word to try and justify anything we want to justify.
You say humans are superior to dogs (intellectually i presume). So what. If there was an alien species that came to earth that was 100x superior to us I'd still save my dog first, then a human stranger, then the alien stranger. I'm sure you'd save the human over the alien even though ALIEN > HUMAN.
You know, when you need to bring ALIENS into the argument to try and make a point, you've lost.
It's not intellectually...there are retarded humans, I'd still save them over a dog.
