If you could see what lives lead ahead for both the fetus and the baby, would that change your answer? If the fetus was going to cure cancer and solve world peace and the baby was going to sit around the house as a drunk would you still let the fetus drop? You know why you would choose the baby. Because you can look at the baby and see the baby and evolutionarily, every part of your body would be saying to save the baby. You think of a fetus and you think of a little sac of lifeless cells. But if you could see the possibilities of each of their lives then your choice would not be as easy as you envision it to be. This is a stupid ass scenario. You're still asking them to put a price on a life and it's impossible to do that. Think about this. Sometimes there isn't a right answer. Sometimes there's just choices you have to make, and none of them are right. This world isn't black and white and nothing is as easy as you think it is.

That's one example of classical conditioning I guess
