Okay, here's where we get into terminology, which, in this instance, makes all the difference. Euro (the character) considers Eddie to be his "son," when, in reality, Eddie is really his clone. Now, I've been incredibly involved in the human cloning debate for a while. Walker, I suppose, feels that Eddie is not human, as modern science cannot duplicate the human soul. (This is a common anti-cloning arguement here in the States... I'm not sure if they use it in other parts of the world as well.) In this way, Eddie is no different (except by appearance only) than a young chimpanzee. He is able to be taught and studied, but is not human.

Walker HATES metahumans.
This will be dealt with more later.

Euro, again:
So far, his goal seems (SEEMS) to solve the problems of the potential danger of rampaging metas eradicating them from the planet (at last, the research around the Pathogen, some things he has said in the past seems to go in that direction, I can be not right). If that's the case, it's genocide, and that's, for our society, is bad. It's evil.
What gives you the impression that the Pathogen is a fatal disease? I've not written it as such, and neither has anyone else. It may be fatal to humans, but not (as we've seen) to metas. This can't be considered genocide, but is, in Walker's mind, a large test study of the virus.

Euro...
...heroes usually are the ones that do something different from normal humans.
Yes, but I never made the claim that the EPS were "heroes" either. That's not the issue.

Second, Chewy, yes, the last one was the best post about the Revolution. Frightening, moving, great!
Thanks, Euro! High praise! [Smile]

Thanks, T5. That may be one of the best compliments I've ever received on these boards. Thank you very much.
