don't you people get it? if one of us is in pain, doesn't matter who, then there's still someone suffering, that's not fair. even you rage don't have the right to sacrifice that much, you're just naively thinking it'd work out somehow.

if you stick your hand in boiling water for an hour i'll give a homeless person some coins. to get you trying it out. :P it'll be worth it won't it? think of that dude getting a cuppa coffee because of you.
You're sounding rather John Donneish with that post SoVaNu, don't ask for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for Rage.  :zoinks: Anyway it's all academic, portions of the world can be made better from time to time but it will never be paradise.

lol i'll google john donne then

the bell defo tolls for rage if he's that self-sacrificing. i admire his goodwill though.

Thanks.

you're sweet to say you would do that. disturbing as it is really. but i think you wouldn't sacrifice anyone else to save the world, so you shouldn't think you are worth so little you'd deserve to be sacrificed. the one thing people haven't understood is that they themselves are as worthy as anyone. we're taught to treat others like we'd treat ourselves, but often we treat ourselves worse. we should treat ourselves like we should treat others. with kindness. and fairness.

I think the entire world is probably worth a lot more than just my life, dear. I'm not so full of myself as all that.  :laugh:

If you could obtain enough power to right every single wrong in the world, and destroy corruption for all time...

But in doing so, you would give up your soul in order to be tortured in ways more horrifying than you can imagine forever, would you do it?

I would.

No. And yes, I am that selfish.

You actually didn't have to tell.

You'd sacrifice yourself, then?

Like I said: if I got cancer, I'd kill as many cops/politicans/whatever as possible. I wouldn't do it while still 100% healthy, though.

Sure would.
