And please don't say that this has been posted before.

Here we go:

Q1: 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 scrolling down to the answer of this one.

Q2: It is time to elect the world leader, and your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three leading 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 hasn't had any extramarital affairs.

Which of these candidates would be your choice?

Decide first, no peeking, then scroll down for the answer.










Candidate A was Franklin D. Roosevelt

Candidate B was Winston Churchill

Candidate C was Adolph Hitler


And by the way...
If you answered "YES" to the abortion question, you just killed Beethoven.

Netra good topic
if you delibrate on it what does it really mean

what are the chances? that such mother will again ever also produce another Beethowen?!

what are the chances again ever drunks and womanisers Churchil or Roosevelt being elected to the highest office of the land?!

What are the chances of a war hero turning in to a monster?!

amazing stuff...how do we reach or what is the moral of the story.......tough topic.....somewhere someone was deciding their fate and taking all factors in to consideration...you can delibrate for days and still reach no understanding...makes you a believer...believe but in what?

We have many a learned people here, may be they can make some morals of this tale....

Tantric,

Even now after reading the message I would still vote for No. 3 and would also recommend that the woman abort the baby.

Cheers,
