Picture a huge conveyor belt, and at the end of it a massive furnace. And on the conveyor belt are books. Every copy in the world of your most loved books. All lined up. And imagine a lever with two labels, On and Off. And next to it is a human being with his hand on the lever. About to turn it on. And you can stop it. You have a gun in your hand. All you have to do is pull the trigger. What do you do?

Will you shoot the person to save the books from burning or won’t you kill the person and let the books burn?
