*An old enemy of yours needs a blood transfusion or he will die, will you give it to him? ( You yourself will only suffer minor nausea)
*An old woman infront of you, 80+ years of age drops $20 on the ground, and doesn't notice. She is dressed is raggy apparel, give it back or keep it.
Answer these, then we can proceed.

Help, unless the gunmen is still there
Let him die
Give it back
Whereas you would classify my actions as having a "moral" quality to them, i submit it is equally as possible to have other reasons behind my choices. why does it have to fit within the dichotomy of good/evil or good/bad? Can't it fit within the dichotomy of helpful/harmful?
