Just hypothetically speaking
 

Thought it would be fun to list and answer hypothetical situations. Like the classic...

save 10 kittens lives / save a dirty homeless man's life

or

save your house from burning down / save all of your neighbor's houses from burning down

I'd save the homeless man and my house.

Choose one:

Cancer is cured and so the suffering of millions is alleviated.
-OR-
You are gifted with an inconcievable amount of money, more than you could spend in two lifetimes.

I'd choose to cure cancer.

Save a loved one's life

or

Save a 12 innocent children.

I'd save the kittens and my house. Kittens are always better than people. Even rich people. Unless the rich person offers me much money to save him... then I'd flip a coin. Oh, and money. I'll take the money. Unless I have cancer. And save the loved one.

Would you kill an innocent man if you knew that his death would save 10 other people?

I'd sell the cancer cure (at a reasonable price) and make an inconceivable amount of money. Best of both worlds.

anyway, I'd save my friend. Good friends are rare. little kids are not rare. In the time they take to die, 3 for each of them would have been born somewhere anyway. man I sound so cruel:/
and, krylo: I'd kill the man, one innocent life is more then worth 10 innocent lives. it'd suck anyway though, doing either. :[

ok hows this. would you either...
Get the chance to talk and be good friends with your most favorite celebrity
OR
Get the chance to BE your favorite celebrity?

i'd take the money. With those resources i could make lives better for a myriad of people. No point in curing cancer when people will die of diabetes, heart desease, strokes, AIDS, etc, etc.

to perserve the balance of the universe, anyone who choose "cure cancer" would have to watch people suffer and die for want of money, and anyoen who chose the money would haev to die themselves of cancer. So i might as well take the money and spend it well. Hell, even fund cancer research ;)


id save the loved one

I'd rather be my favorite celebrity. As long as my favorite celebrity's still alive and in good health.

Choose your mode of death:

1) At the age of 30, while walking through Times Square in the middle of New Years Eve, you spontaneously combust. It's captured on live television and broadcasted to millions of viewers. You become a legend, but it hurts like hell for the few minutes it takes for you to die.

-OR-

2) At the age of 65, you die from a heart attack while making sweet love to your eleven beautiful and voluptuous wives. However, it becomes known to the public that you had bought your wives using funds you got by skinning babies alive and selling their flesh on the black market. Your name and memory is cursed and defiled beyond even Hitler, your descendents are persecuted for sharing your blood, but your last moments on Earth were sweet, sweet bliss.

First ill feet the kittens to the homless guy, Put the fire out my house, selling the cancer cure is a good idea, save my loved one by feeding them 12 innosent children, id meet and be good firends with (eat) my favorite celibraty,then aAt the age of 65, die from a heart attack while making sweet love to my eleven beautiful and voluptuous wives and let it beknown to the public that I had bought my wives using funds I got by skinning babies alive and selling (and eating) their flesh on the black market.

Sounds liek a good life to me.

I'd save the kittens but only if they killed the homeless man for me. Then I'd put the kittens in the burning houses and laugh maniacally while the smell of burning kitten flesh permeated the air. I'd also call my insurance company (cha-ching!)

I'm a firm believer in achieving multiple goals with limited means.

Oh, and given the choice to be friends with my favourite celebrity or be my favourite celebrity, I'd rather be friends. That way, I could borrow money but I wouldn't be in the public eye.
