Ethical Question - Tough One

Question #1. You are a fire fighter. You run into a burning building performing your duties. You realize there a four rooms and you can only save one of the rooms or you can perform the ultimate scarfice and let yourself die and save two rooms. Here are the rooms listed as follows:

a. One Cute Baby Boy and One Cute Baby Girl

b. 5 Pregenant Mothers (8 Months) Pregenant

c. 25 Adults (Ages 18-21)

d. 175 Senior Citizens (Ages 80-110)

Now you can only save one room. The only way you can save two rooms is by scraficing yourself (as result you die).

What would your decision be? What would the right decision be? Defend why you feel that way.

---------------------------------------

Question 2# You commited a horrible crime and you are forced to goto court. You meet this odd judge who is brand new and has full support of the President to do whatever they want. As a result of your crimes, the judge is trying to teach you a lesson.

He says, "I will offer you two lifesytles for you to live. If you fail to live it, you will die of a slow poision that will kill you over 6 months and will give you every cancer known to man".

So here are the two choices:

Choice 1:

* You get 15 billion dollars
* You cannot have any social contact
* You may have internet friends, but can never expose who you are
* You must give up a leg
* You cannot listen to any music
* You are not allowed to eat any sugary products
* You must spend 4 hours a day cleaning one toilet

or

Choice 2

* You are not allowed to make any money. You are given one room, your food is paid and your basic living expenses are paid for.
* You may not earn money to shop
* You cannot eat anything that has Fat in it
* You are not allowed to leave your house
* You must spend 30 minutes a day eating the food you hate the most
* You can only play games that are 20 years or older
* You must take care of 52 dogs.
* You can only drink water
* You may not use the internet
* You must live in a desert

----------------------

Good luck with your answer to both questions.

The adults and the mothers. I would die and because 1 is the lowest number out of all the options.

and B.
I don't care much about food, and life is much better if you have freinds and music and stuff, because even if you had so much money you would feel empty.
But how would you care for 52 dogs!

1.
I would save the babies only.

2.
I cant live without internet, and I hate deserts.... but I DONT want to clear the toilet 4 hours a day, so my choice is #2.


By the way, I was wondering if you'd like to post your own answers, Cloud !? ;)

Yeah, and what are these symbols below our names. I this ranks or somthing?

Thinking about the Q's, If you had 52 dogs, and ate no fat, you would die of skinnyness.
And what use is money if you can't social contact. Even if you order online you have to collect the package. Unless you hired somone to do stuff for you and they never saw you, you only called them.

I would go with C because the 18-21's year olds have not fully experienced life. The little babies as harsh as it seems, they won't remember anything :p

The mothers i would let go of also because the babies inside are not fully born yet and to me, they are 5 adults. The senior citizens can go because they already lived life.

Simple, I would go with 1 because i need the internet!

I would sacrifice my life and save the children and the mothers. Just believe woman and childrean always get priority, after all, they're our future.

As for the other question, I would go for choice 1. For one, you get to spend 15 million dollars. o.o Gosh, buy a new leg with that money. o.o I hate deserts. =( Last but not least, it's because cleaning a toilet for 4 hours would probably take less time then cleaning the dropings of 52 dogs =) not to mention, it being much easier. XP

jajaja... you're right there man....

well there's always a good solution for everything.... I'd put something on the 52 dog's asses, so I wouldn't be taking the leavings from the floor.... just change the thing once its full
