A moral dilemma, what would you do?

This is a real tough one!!

This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.

The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision.

Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.

Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.

THE SITUATION:

You are in London. There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding.

This is a flood of biblical proportions.

You are a photo-journalist working for a major newspaper, and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster.


The situation is nearly hopeless.

You're trying to shoot career-making photos.

There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing into the water.

Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.


THE TEST:

Suddenly, you see a man in the water.

He is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris.

You move closer... Somehow, the man looks familiar...

You suddenly realise who it is.............................................................


...................It's Muslim Cleric Abu Hamza (the hook handed fellow)
You notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever.

You have two options:

You can save the life of Abu or you can shoot a dramatic Prize winning photo,documenting the death of one of the country's most despised, evil and powerful men!

THE QUESTION:

Here's the question, and please give an honest answer....







Would you select high contrast colour film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?

Black and white, because it'd show the true panic and desperation of him.

I understand where you all come from on this and I don't criticize anyone for it. However, I would save him. I would have the moral high ground, I'm a better man than he is, his life would be mine.

At the end of the day despite the mental illness that afflicts him - whether it be Islam, communism or parkinson's disease, he is a man in need. If it was me in the water I would be praying someone anyone, would haul me out. Human life is too precious to throw away on feelings of hate. It could be by saving him I change him and he becomes a humanitarian, saving other lives through his own works. What then....

And if I don't save him may be I would be condemning others to death because he wasn't there to save them. We have no crystal balls to tell the future, no time machines to jump forward and see what the results of our actions, but we do have something that is inside every Englishman. That is a strong sense of right and wrong and most importantly compassion. It's why we love our animals so much. It's why we all keep pets. It's why we've set up schools and hospitals here and around the world. It's why the UK per head of population donates more money to emergency funds than just about any country in the world including the Christian country of the United States of America. Yes, we out give americans. We are a compassionate people. That's why I'd save him.

I'm a Heathen, it's only a matter of finding the best solution for all.
Pragmatic as i am, i would get his attention if possible, and ask him if there's something he would like to say before dying, any regrets perhaps!

After all, He believes in allah, the perfect god, and then it's NOT for me to interfere with his personal death! That would be immoral.


Would you select high contrast colour film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?
Damn.... I too swallowd the... RUBY....... :D :D

Black & white film would do!

You never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far; So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,and when all seems lost you must never quit.
