Moral Dilemmas

[Som1Lse]

I tried to find some on Google, and found these. I really liked them, so I decided I'd share them:
Clicky.
^Please read the above moral dilemmas before continuing.^

Post your answers in this thread.
If 10 people reply you will get my answers as well.
If you change your mind feel free to update your post. Please state why you changed your mind as well.

PS: Answer them as what you would do and why you would do so. There are no right answers, it is simply moral issues.

For the marijuana at the airport dillema, I would answer:

"It's YOURS, officer! "
And then I'd snap my fingers like The Fonz.

...

And then all of my hypothetical family would live happily ever after.

7. The Neighbor
Hmmm....
I will be quiet,until that neighbor will go in prison.Then I would tall to the policeman that the killer has been another person.Policeman want proofs!
And I would say to him: one night before his wife murdered he was alone and sad in restaurant.Why has he been alone and sad? Alone cos his wife is in home.also unhappy he knew that person that he paid is killing his wife and this is against the law.

So that neighbor would be in prison,because he paid sb for kill and killer would be in policeman list.

Rubbish.
Seriously, i've read about 5 of that Dilemmas and the answer is always obvious.
Probably this isn't hard for me, due to my strict moral alignment and my personal believs :P

1. Stay in the boat. Death isn't exactly anything to be afraid of, anyways.
2. Torture the guy, leave his wife. If the hundred people die, that's it, same as above applies.
3. Son. His fault and he has to carry the consequences.
4. Admit it's your fault. The alternative would surely ruin my life/karma.
5. Take the niece. If it would be a "pick one, the other dies"-decision i would go for my daugther, but since there is a chance of her surviving, rather go for the niece.
6. This is just overly fail. Seriously. But je, let's blow up the women and hope we dont get buried by an exploding ceiling XD
7. Tell the thruth.
8. Don't see any reason to tell anybody about other people's afairs. I've got a quite open mind in that regard.
9. Wife, beloved life > random life.
10. Pull the chair, my son is dead either way.

Serious, please.

See, I think the issue here is I'm not a very serious person, especially when faced with a no-win scenario like that.

Still, frighteningly enough, I think maybe I would actually do that, damn the consequences. And here's why: I would rather do whatever I could to try and get us all out of there (and act like Fonzie) than split up the family by pointing fingers. Even if it was unlikely to work, and/or stupid.

That serious enough for ya?

That serious enough for ya?

Not really. But I do understand you reason.
A "We've never seen it." (or something along the lines of that) would have been better.
I would have hoped that you'd ask me "Why so serious?".

And here I thought there were no right or wrong answers

10. I wouldn't pull the chair. Other people would die anyway and the result for not killing the son wouldn't for sure make a great difference.
9. Probably save the wife. Even though a present anger/shock, it would haunt my mind the rest of my life if a random stranger who banged my wife was saved instead of my wife.
8. I'd tell the friend. Bros before work.
7. Tell what I had seen.
6. This is too unreal to think about, but the life of one is as important as any number of lives.
5. Niece first, cause there was a chance that the daughter would also be saved.
4. Tell the truth that you did it.
3. "It's mine." Heroic, yes, but I probably couldn't expose my son for it. (I think the consequences are over exaggerated.)
2. Torture him, but not the wife.
1. Stay and help the others. I'd rather die a hero, than escape like a coward.

nice quiz(?)
anyway, here's my answers

Spoiler (Click to View)

1. stay on the boat and help those ppl. (but isn't the boat not too far from the ship? so why don't we try looking for a help? lol)
2. torture them!! a criminal and his wife doesn't worth a hundreds lifes!!
3. Son, i'm dissappoint... yeah, i'll totally told him "it's my son's bag", and i'm from Indonesia anyway, those kinds of things are totally untolerable, and i was wondering, how can it not be?
4. tell the truth, i know it won't be easy but, well... it's a matter of ruining someone's life...
5. first, i'll shout out "HEEELP!!", so that someone will come by and help, and then i'll go take the niece first since there's a chance to my daughter that she can survive long enough to be saved by me or anyone else nearby
6. blow the women!! and again... 2 lifes doesn't worth many, although there's a high chance that the cave will collapse...
7. tell the police about what has happened to my daughter, the truth, and all the things that might be related and suspicious...
8. duh, who cares about someone's adultery? i've my own life to take care, but i guess i'll have some talk with that women a bit...
9. save my wife's life and leave the guy...
10. what the--- that's illegal... i guess i'll just pull the chair (one's life doesn't worth many), but at least give me something to close my eyes so that i won't be able to see while doing it
