hypothetical questions

If you and your kids are drowning do you save the kids but die making them grive you or save yourself and have the kids die and grive them?

Suppose for next time's elections the Democrats were to nominate a candidate who is opposed to abortion and same-sex marriages and who is skeptical about evolution. And at the same time the Republicans were to nominate an atheist. But apart from their religious beliefs, these two candidates hold views typical of their party. Who do you vote for?

If you do what hitler did(bite a cyanide pill and shot yourself in the head) which kills you?

Would you accept $1,000,000 in U.S. dollars (or the equivelant in whatever currency) to leave your country and never set foot in it again?

You have the chance to meet someone with whom you can have the most satisfying love imaginable -- the stuff of dreams. However, you know that in six months the person will have sex with someone else, and then when you eventually find out they will leave you for them and want nothing more to do with you. Knowing the pain that would follow, would you still want to meet the person and fall in love and experience the 6 months of bliss?

Would you be willing to have your left ring finger surgically removed if it 'somehow' guaranteed you immunity from all diseases?

You are leading 100 people in a survivalist situation, when suddenly your lives are in danger and you must choose between two courses of action. One would cause 10 of the people to die and everyone else would live, the other would have a 70% chance of saving everyone but were it to fail then everyone would die. Which would you choose?

You are offered $1,000,000 USD (or the equivalent in whatever currency) for the following act: Before you are ten pistols -- only one of which is loaded. You must pick up one of the pistols, point it at your forehead, and pull the trigger. If you can do this and walk away you do so a millionaire. Would you accept the risk?

Which gender do you think has it easier in our culture?

Would you sell 1 day of your life(you die a day earlier) for $1000? If so, how many days of your life would you sell?

Would it be better to know the exact date of your death, or the precise means of your death?

For $35,000 USD, would you go for three months without washing, brushing your teeth, or using deodorant? Assume you could not explain your reasons to anyone until after the three months is up.
