Why are you browbeating Steven, E? :-)

I suspect that neither you nor anyone else will express an opinion without changing the subject to another one because of the fear Political Correctness has instilled in hearts and minds.

Maybe we just are not that interested in a question as hypothetical as the one that was posed.

And why would it be anyone's duty to continue the human race, anyway? In any real life context, the only reason the human race would have been reduced to two people would be that mankind had done something terribly wicked and/or stupid - like start a nuclear war. Why perpetuate such a morally deficient species?

The two would do better to adopt some animal orphan (because animal species would probably have been decimated, too). Some poor little gorilla baby, perhaps.
