“Would you kill someone to prevent a terrible injustice that has not yet occurred but that you know will happen if you do nothing?

It is a most difficult conundrum. I would look to the Maker to guide me.” “And if the Maker is silent?” “When the Maker is silent, it is because the experience of making the choice is more important than the outcome.” “If the Maker denies his counsel when it is requested, then how can one be held accountable for making the wrong choice?”
