Dodobird said in another forum that the stupidest thing he has EVER heard a person say is that cats are inferior to humans, and he said somebody here said it.

I think he might have been talking about me. I didn't want to argue about it in that forum, so I decided to get into it here. So I have a question for Dodobird and anybody else who wants to chime in. If you are driving on a two lane bridge, a person (a total stranger you've never seen or heard of) is walking in the other lane, and a cat you've never seen or heard of jumps into your lane and right in front of you, what do you do? Let's say that you are going too fast to put on the brakes and save both of them. Let's also say that the road is so narrow that it is impossible to swerve and avoid both of them. You have to hit either the person or the cat. Which one would you hit? Why?

I'm going to run over the cat because people mean a lot more to me than cats and I think people most likely have more appreciation for life than cats. Also, the grieving people would go through over the person's death would most likely be much more widespread and extreme than what would happen in response to the cat's death.

Please don't argue with my reason until you have answered the question. Thanks.
