99% of all life forms that ever existed on Earth are extinct. Virtually all without the "help" of Man.

OK, here's the BIG QUESTION ( I was hoping a few straw men might present themselves in answering the first question).

More than one issue can be considered in responding to the following.

***Should some fantastic circumstance result in two healthy twenty-something humans (male and female) being the last on earth.....and, should the woman be of strong mind, "I wouldn't have you if you were the last man on earth.".....would the man be justified in forcing sex with the woman in hopes of perpetuating the human species?***

If the reader will permit an attempt to make this a non sexist proposition -- imagine that the male is a sincerely devout religious figure absolutely convinced he will lose his immortal soul by having sexual relations with That Woman -- "Miss Deserted Island." Would she be justified in knocking him over the head, restraining him and exploiting his biological nature?

I'm going to bed now. Being the sensitive type, I would have trouble sleeping if called dog vomit or worse, at this hour (Please, Blue, I didn't mean anything by it. I swear!"
