What do you think happens to YOU when all of your memories, beliefs, desires, and the like are erased?  Why do you think this?

Scenario #3:   Your mind wiped clean?

So let’s suppose you’ve made it to Krypton and survived the “Reverse Superman Effect”.  Things are fine and dandy until you discover that, despite what you previously believed, there are other people on this planet.  And human beings at that—who speak English.  One day your camp is suddenly surrounded on all sides by millions of these Kryptonians. It turns out they are not hostile, they just want to “assimilate you” to their society.  What this means is the following—you will be given a drug that puts you to sleep, wipes your mind clean, and “installs” new memories, beliefs, desires, and the like.  After taking the drug, your body will be perfectly healthy and unaffected, but the person that wakes up will have no memory of earth or of any hopes, beliefs, or desires she had before the drug was taken.  Rather, the person who awakes will believe she is a Kryptonian, born and raised on Krypton, and have myriad “memories” of life on Krypton.

But the Kryptonians are a rather fair-minded lot, and they inform that you don’t have to take the drug.  You can, if you wish, choose to be banished to the Kryptonian desert.  If you make this choice, your memories will be left intact, but you’ll be forced to traverse the desert.  On the other side of the desert is a virtual paradise where you will be able to live happily, but the Kryptonians tell you that you have only about a 10% chance of making it across without dying.

What will you do?  The drug or the desert?  Here are some questions to consider:

 

  1. What do you think happens to YOU when all of your memories, beliefs, desires, and the like are erased?  Why do you think this?

 

 

  1. What decision would you make regarding the drug or the desert?  Given that you’ve made this decision, you must think it has the greatest chance of keeping you alive.  Why do you think this?

 

 

  1. Suppose a friend of yours was going to make the opposite decision. You’d have to convince them they are wrong.  How would you do this?
