Why would you believe somebody that is paid to promote 'things'? A simulation where each person's life means nothing on a scale that is not the 'big scale' where the sacrifice than many make results in a pimple sized group gaining a quality of life that makes the live longer as a group and 1 year older before the same death that comes to everybody else.
How truthful are the 'professionals' in general. Look at who get the 'bomb shelter tickets', the same ones that would be the ones to cause the shelters to be needed in the first place. It should be the peaceful people that survive rather than the ones that caused an early extinction level event. (when you think about it, a scientist isn't going to promote that even though it would help the survivors in the long run.
