One day, you wake up in hospital. In the nearby bed lies a world famous violinist who is connected to you with various tubes and machines.
To your horror, you discover that you have been kidnapped by the Music Appreciation Society. Aware of the maestro’s impending death, they hooked you up to the violinist.
If you stay in the hospital bed, connected to the violinist, he will be totally cured in nine months. You are unlikely to suffer harm. No one else can save him. Do you have an obligation to stay connected?
I think I would stay. But really, its one of those things that you don't know untill it happens. You might think that you would stay connected, but if it actually happens, who knows what you would do.
I don't think its considered Murder, but it will be on your conscious for all you life. Just because you couldn't take 9 months to save a life. 9 months is a long time. But once your out of the hospital and the violinist is healthy, your will feel really goo about yourself. and thats all that matters.
But then again, you could get angry by being kidnapped, and caught up in the moment that you get up and leave. I don't even know what I would do.
