debris4spike2 tough questions - are you ready?
Question 1:
If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?
Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.
Question 2:
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates.
Candidate A.
Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologists. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 Martinis a day.
Candidate B.
He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.
Candidate C
He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.
Which of these candidates would be our choice?
Decide first... No peeking, and then click for the response.
Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.
And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question:
If you said YES, you just killed Beethoven.
Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before judging someone.
Remember: Amateurs...built the ark.
Professionals...built the Titanic

Date: 2010-06-14 10:34 pm (UTC)So I voted for Winston Churchill and said NO to the question above, bc if that woman already has 8 kids with one on the way, she has/had to suffer through 9 births, and that should be punishment enough ;)
Funny thing - I liked it! :)

Hope life is OK with you .... even if you are tired.

Date: 2010-06-14 10:36 pm (UTC)I chose C, but it also helps to see what the candidates want to do in the future/beliefs and their metal stability and stuff, because choices that they've made don't necessarily reflect how they are going to rule the world. People usually change, especially after they make a decision to follow Christ whole-heartedly.
Adolf Hitler never cheated on his wife? How did he end up with syphilis then?no subject
Date: 2010-06-15 07:10 am (UTC)Yes, C sounded great ... I think the only reason he didn't cheat on his wife is that they only got married the day before they committed suicide!!

Date: 2010-06-15 03:53 am (UTC)As for the second question, I guess I am a Nazi now. ***hangs my head in shame*** I should know if it looks good on paper it stinks in reality.

Date: 2010-06-15 05:10 am (UTC)I picked Roosevelt. Purely on the fact that he seemed open minded to other things that are out there.

Date: 2010-06-15 07:15 am (UTC)I actually cheated with the 2nd answer! So read the peoples names before working out the reasons!
