A baby falls off a 20 story building, directly underneath that baby is an innocent father of 3 that will definitely be killed when the baby strikes him. To the right of the father is a button that says, “Press Button to vaporize anything above you”…
What do you do?
Get an apartment in a better neighborhood.
I adore the subtly of your questions.
The father should lay down a Portable Manhole and go down it for safety.
Every father should know how to catch falling babies.
Bill Clinton and Tom Carper are tied for last place in the VP poll.
Just sayin’
BTW, why is Bill Clinton even an option on the poll? He can’t be VP.
Have you considered therapy?
So who presses the button, me or the father?
If the button is right next to the father and I’m supposed to make the decision (push the button), then why wouldn’t I just push the father out of the way?
Take button to secret hideout, begin executing plan for world domination.
Obliterate Iran.
Catch baby in baseball glove while failing to spill beer in other hand.
VC,
you = father
Then I would move aside, since I would know what was going on and have the time to push a button.
Plus, I don’t want to be responsible for vaporizing a baby! I’ll leave that to faulty Chinese construction! 😉
Here’s my QOD:
Donhoni do you sleep all night just dreamin’ up these ‘moral dilemmas’ so that your readership must stay up the following night debating their answers?
